Also, once I save the chagnes, I can't seem to find them. Where would you look for the list of ports I already set to be forwarded?

Which model is your dlink router?
I think the IP address you use is the local IP address of your computer, then the ports are defined by range. If it's just one port then it would be the same number twice.
