ah ok

ya its still checked

and under Firewall Nat 
is Source NAT the same as Port Forward?

as there is no + option to say open a port 80 under Source  NAT

Destination NAT is port forward. Source NAT is just regular outbound masquerading.

ok so Source NAT is Outbound NAT then

so then this should open up the thing

well that didnt work  i can not port forward through the darn wan connection  ugh... so much headache to just simply open up port 80 to access the gui

You do not need a port forward rule to access the UI on WAN. Just a simple allow rule on the interface and of course "disable reply-to" must ve active globally.

Oh and do not mess with the "listen interface" settings.
