Google account log in

Hi there,

So I just purchased a Galaxy Note 10.1 2014 Edition and I am setting it up for first time use. When I try to log into my Google account it just takes me to the Google Account Setting page and I can't complete the process. I've tried searching the forums but I haven't been able to find any information. The steps I take are as follows:

1) Go to Settings > General > Accounts
2) Click "Add Account" > Google
3) Sign in using my Username and Password (Same one I've had for years)
4) Asks me to verify by signing in on the website. Takes me to the verification screen.
5) Get verification text on my phone. Enter the 6 digit number > Check "Don't ask me again on this device" > Click "Verify"
6) Takes me to Google Account settings page.

I have reviewed all of the information on that page and I've even gone through and verified all of my log in's and linked apps. If I back out or hit the home button I have to start all over again. I've owned many google/android products and devices and this is the first time I've had this sort of issue. Maybe someone here that's smarter than me can help?

Thanks
