Port forwarding not working in RV160

I'm having problems trying to port forward on a brand new RV160 I've set it up correctly, followed the instructions on https://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/support/docs/smb/routers/cisco-rv-series-small-business-routers/Configure-Port-Forwarding-and-Port-Triggering-RV160-and-RV260.html but it still doesn't work

 

It's funny coz I'm used to working with ASA's and not these small routers and never had any issues with ASA firewalls but for some reason I'm not managing to port forward with this one.

 

I have also tried to create a access rule but it still does not work.

 

I'm attaching screenshot and debugging log.

Somehow I managed to solve the issue i did the following:

 

1: Created an access rule on ipv6 allowing RDP (and removed later) - did not work

2: Enabled upnp - did not work

3: Set the rdp server as DMZ, tested RDP and worked, then removed the server as dmz and it continued to work.

 

I have no idea why and it doesn't even make sense but it worked...

Are you able to Login Locally tested RDP working on this device (since windows has FW built in) - if that is confirmed and windows PC able to allow RDP tested locally.
