Port forward won't stay enabled.

I'm trying to forward a port on my router (Lynksis Etherfast Model BEFSR41) for Transmission, but when I click "save settings", "enabled" isn't checked anymore. I've already turned off the OS X firewall for this.
This was never a problem on my old computer. I've tried Safari(which has trouble connecting to the router itself), Firefox, and Camino and it's all been the same.

Any idea why this is happening?

First of all, it's Linksys, not Lynksis.

Second of all, leave the OS X firewall enabled. That won't affect anything.

Third, try running IE in a VM. It's possible your router uses a poorly coded interface that requires IE.

I did that, and when I opened it up in IE it WAS checked... so I guess it is forwarded. I just need to look at it in IE.
Thanks!
