Nighthawk X6 AC3200 R8000 Verify active TCP ports

I am getting connection errors and missed this step in the instructions:

 

If you are using a router, please set up your ports so that the below packets can pass through.
[Ports that may be used]
TCP:80, 443, 54992-54994, 55006-55007, 55021-55040

 

How do I verify these are passing through or set them to pass through if they are not?

    Be sure uPnP is enabled or disabled if you configure Port Forwarding on the router. 

     

    Be sure your ISP modem or ONT doesn't have a built in router here. This effect port checking and usage.
