Bitcoin Core Full Node - Almost giving up

Hey all,

I installed Bitcoin Core on an external 1TB Hard Disk, downloaded the entire blockchain in less than 18 hours and got synced.

Everything nice and smooth but I can't open the infamous Port 8333, so I continuously have only 8 outbound active connections and still 0 inbound connections (I can't open Port 8333 because I don't know how to do it).

I searched on the web but really I can't figure out how to solve this issue, I couldn't find any comprehensible help. I'd love to run a full node and contribute with my means to the network. I think that everyone of us should run a full node even if it looks like tech savvy stuff. Though, I don't get why it has to be so complicated.

Any suggestions?

Would love to hear your experience.

Thanks
