D6220 firewall

I'm having trouble opening ports on my D6220 modem/router. One particular UDP/TCP port needs to be open inbound and outbound to all IP's. I dont see an option to do that in the genie configuration tool.

   What is the actual problem which you are trying to solve?  "trouble"?

 

> [...] my D6220 modem/router. [...]

 

   Firmware version?

   Why?  Port forwarding deals with incoming connections.  I'm unaware
of any restriction on outgoing connections.

   "do" _what_, exactly?  What _do_ you see?


   Which "the genie configuration tool"?  Ever helpful, Netgear uses the
name "Genie" for more than one thing.  Netgear routers have a
web-browser interface called "Genie", and Netgear offers application
programs for various computers/tablets/phones, which are also called
"Genie".  (I'd stick with the web-browser interface.)
