Nighthawk MR1100, Problem w/ Port Forwarding

Hello,

I'm using my hotspot to mine crypto which requires port forwarding. I have entered the parameters (IP Address Port) exactly as I do on my Asus router at home but the port for my Netgear hotspot is seemingly still closed. Do I need DMZ? What should I do?

    I think this is a common issue on mobile network that carriers will block some ports. This may be the reason port forwarding is not working on M1.
