Hi there!

I'm trying to forward ports on my local network.

I'm using fiber connection and my ISP is not blocking any ports - confirmed on phone call.

Router I'm using is Tenda AC23.

Here's screenshot of my settings, top is what I'v placed in tenda settings, lower one is port in Qbittorent I want to forward. I'v checked my local ip via 'ipconfig' command.

What I'm doing wrong?

Not sure about your area, but in the UK "most" "good" ISPs will allow 'alterations' for a small fee. Items that they don't want to provide as standard, such as "static ip" or "open port 25" can be added with an email and a one off fee.

That could include getting out of CGNat, getting a fixed IP and having any ports unblocked.

If they have no idea what you are talking about or flat out say "No. Sorry", find a better ISP!
