Unless ur looking at accepting inbound connections then you shouldnt need to add any.

Upnp is not needed for normal home hotspot use as no inbound rules are required. For standard use Pi-Star will initiate all communications with outbound connections that will be handled by the routers "related" inbound rule.

You may need to engage an enterprise-class Router certified engineer to analyse the enterprise-class Router logs to determine the issue.

I believe only one specific type of D-Star reflector requires a port forward. Other than that, as stated, everything is outbound and stateful firewall rules (which your "enterprise grade" router/firewall will support) will handle things.

I have UPnP disabled on my router and haven't had issues with DMR or YSF.
