I would like to open ports 65171 and 65172 for Soulseek, how do I do this?

router: Belkin RT3200

I'm to do this with a computer running openSUSE Tumbleweed connected via Ethernet cable.
Someone on Reddit is telling me to use UPnP, but the documentation says that's a security risk.
The rules you've added have only opened ports to the router itself. You need to edit the rules to change the action to forward the traffic to whatever device is running the Soulseek client.
You are not forwarding the ports properly -- the definition of what you are showing is "forward to this device" which means the router itself is getting the traffic. You need to forward it to the host that is running soul seek.
I thought that the destination lan thing would send it over lan to me, how do I set it correctly to send it to my computer?
How do I do that?
Did you look at the link I posted?
I'm using LuCI, so I guess I can't do this yet?
I tried setting the foreward to my internal IP adress, but it still doesn't work.
Let's see a screenshot of your "edit" view of the port forward rule
assuming that 192.168.1.217 is the soul seek host, you should be fine.
Maybe you should install the latest OpenWrt 21.02.
I restarted my PC and it worked. Thanks!
