Solution: 2019-19 Balancing consecutive squares

Find all integers \( n \) such that the following holds:

There exists a set of \( 2n \) consecutive squares \( S = \{ (m+1)^2, (m+2)^2, \dots, (m+2n)^2 \} \) (\( m \) is a nonnegative integer) such that \( S = A \cup B \) for some \( A \) and \( B \) with \( |A| = |B| = n \) and the sum of elements in \( A \) is equal to the sum of elements in \( B \).
