Belkin Router Opening Ports

[AbdulaOblongata]

Im using uTorrent and i got the error saying that my port was closed. I tried opening a port on my Belkin wireless N router. Model number is F5D8233-4v3. I check the port that I tried to open on these two sites but it says that its closed:
http://www.canyouseeme.org
http://www.yougetsignal.com/tools/open-ports/

I have the firewall turned off and also used the virtual server tool and added an inbound port and a private port with the same port number. No luck though. Any help would be appreciate.

I don't know what to tell you. The directions are very straightforward and detailed.
