"it's not letting me" is not a useful problem description. It does
not say what you did. It does not say what happened when you did it.
As usual, showing actual actions with their actual results (error
messages, LED indicators, ...) can be more helpful than vague
descriptions or interpretations. Copy+paste is your friend.What, exactly, did you specify for each port-forwarding rule?

I wouldn't expect any particular problem with forwarding two
different ports to any particular IP address.
