Can't open port to internal network

ukwalnuts_01
Hi,

I'm trying to open up couple of ports to my internal network but I can't seem to get it to work.

I'm using this tool to check if I've successfully managed to open port:

Open Port Check Tool - Test Port Forwarding on Your Router

I've couple of firewall rules:

Internal (network) > Any > Any
Any > Port 5858 > Internal (Network)

I also have 1 masquerading rule:

Internal (Network) > External (WAN) 

Is there anything else I need to do?

I'm seeing this in firewall log:

17:56:30 Default DROP TCP 
69.163.149.200 : 55100 
 → 
My wan ip address : 5858 
 
[SYN] len=52 ttl=48 tos=0x00 srcmac=0:1d:70:af:a2[:D]a dstmac=0:1:2e:24:31:84 
 
Thanks for any help.

    you ahve to forward the ports to something.  Even on those little riters you avhe to forward a port to comething you can't just open it and expect htings to route themselves.  W workaround is upnp but you won't find that on anything really security concious.  The little ritters can do upnp but again all they do is setup the port forwarding rules for you..and only on supported devices AND with supported software.  UPNP also now has been found to have serious security implcations on ritters that aren't updated..i've never liked upnp this jsut adds fuel to the fire:
