Router issues for Xbox live?

I've tried opening the suggested ports 88 and 3074, but when I do it says that it's in conflict with another port.

What should I do exactly to solve the problem of not being able to connect with certain people and open my NAT from strict to open?

I have a netgear wpn824v2.

thanks.

    Use the following link to find out how to allow services through your router.

    You will need to add two new custom services using the following info:

    Service Name: Xbox1

    Start Port: 88

    End Port: 88

    Server IP Address: Ip Address of your Xbox

    Service Name: Xbox2

    Start Port: 3074

    End Port: 3074

    Server IP Address: Ip Address of your Xbox
