Unable to configure the gmail in Windows 10 preview version.

[Windows Central Question]

I have recently upgrade the Windows 10 preview version (10586.494) to my Lumia 730. While trying to configure the gmail account, I'm unable to configure it & it's not even re-directing to gmail account login page. Once select the google in add an account, it's redirecting to some setting page & asking me to download the Chrome/Internet explorer/Firefox/Safari browser.
I'm very much interest to use the win 10 in phone but bcoz of these issue i would thing to downgrade the OS to win8.1 only. So kindly provide the solution to these issue.

Basically it seems like an issue from Google and not MS
