I have the same issue.

- uninstalled fully dropbox from iMac running MacOS Monterey 12.6.7

- downloaded and installed dropbox version v176.4.5108

- prompted with Set Up Dropbox window

- tried to sign in with Personal dropbox account

- could not get in; prompted with red font message: "There was a problem completing this request"

- was able to log in successfully with the personal and business account through Safari web browser version 16.5.1 (17615.2.9.11.7, 17615)
