Xbox Live router issues?

I'm having some problems with my router whenever I try to play certain friends on xbox live. I've tried to open up the recommended ports, but when I do, I get the message that another port is conflicted with it.

I have a Netgear router. What exactly should I put when I put in the port number? More specifically, what IP number should I put when I open it?

Thanks.

    try and plug the Router into a computer and try and get the IP settings from the computer how to do it, Go to Run - Type in cmd then whilst on the black screen type c: then enter and then on the new line type ipconfig and your internet details will come up like your MAC address, IP address etc then just close it once you have found the ip address or just go into the settings of the xbox 360 and tick the box that says automatically detect settings or something like that anyway i have it ticked on mine.
