Port Forwarding

I have just connected a new FTTH EE hub but i cannot get port forwarding to work. I have the ports i want to forward in the port forwarding list but when I run an on line port checker it says the ports are closed still and my application will not work.

The ports are 5200 TCP and 5198/5199 UDP. I have done reboots several times but no joy.

Can anyone help? How do I get these ports to open?

What server are you running that needs port open? Is it up & running?

It is an Echolink node which needs the ports open to work properly and I cannot get them to open.

It also needs ports 82 and 222 open and they are open on TCP so that the Allstar Supermon side is working.

I have those two ports in the port forwarding list as TCP/UDP but they are only open on TCP, which is probably all I need on them.
