Hi TwoTabs,
Welcome to NETGEAR Community!
Thank you for reaching out. We are sorry to hear about your experience with the modem. May we know which device are you trying to open ports with? What are the port numbers? ( you may DM this to us). What is your internet IP address? Are you getting an error messages when you try to use the device remotely?
Please do not hesitate to let me know if you need further assistance.
Regards,
Oliver

to my NVR's and my Patch Management system. If i have UPNP on things work fine, but when i turn UPNP off and try to forward using manual port forwarding it keeps telling me that those specified ports are already in use. I would much rather be doing manual port forwarding since UPNP leaves the network at risk for attack

Just wanted to let everyone know that the port fowarding issue has been fixed with a beta firmware version that Netgear provided. Thanks again for all the help :)
