How do I open the port for my bot? I already added an inbound rule in the Window Defender Firewall for the TCP port I'm using. However, when I start the bot it says the port isn't open so none of the links are clickable. Is there some other way to do that?

Already answered over discord and ticket.
You also have to open your tcp port on your router if you try to host the bot in a home environment.

I'm pretty new to hosting this, how do I actually go into my router settings to do the port forwarding part? Is there a specific guide or default gateway IP I should look for?
