Can't open port 3074

So I keep trying to open ports 88 and 3074 for use with Xbox live because my NAT is strict. 88 goes smoothly but 3074 I've had problems.
I'm using a Netgear WPN824 and at first 3074 said the port was in use and it wouldn't let me open it. Then I found in my WAN settings a radio button that lets me toggle between secure and open for the NAT. I chose open but was still not able too turn on 3074. I check UPnP and it says the IP I gave to the 360 is already using 3074. I turn off UPnP and it now lets me open 3074.
Now a week later I het Halo 3 and everything is working fine. The Xbox tells me my NAT is open. Then yesterday before I join matchmaking the game prompts me that my NAT is secure again and to fix it. I have changed nothing in the router but in the Port Fowarding list the one I used for 3074 is gone and when I try to add it again it says it is in use and won't let me do it.

Do I also have to say I'm having girl problems in the thread title?
