I just want to open ports for BF1. I already have the ports but i dont know how to input them on my router's page.
I dont know that would port filtering help or make it worse. But when I go on Port Range Forwarding, it's telling me to input a new ip address variation on top of a different address which I dont understand how to input. Please any help would be great.

Lets assume you need to forward ports 55-79 udp 80 tcp. These numbers don't make any real sense but are just an example.

First you need to figure out your computer INTERNAL IP. Usually you can enter command prompt and type /ipconfig. Find the adapter and it will be the ipv4 address. Usually 192.168.x.x or 10.0.0.x.

Now fir the first set, under range you put start 55 end 79. Under IP goes your internal IP then you select UDP. Then you have to create another entry for port 80. You use 80 as the start and the end. You do this for all the ports.

Okay so I have a Static IP Address setup on my pc and it does go the same format you mentioned. however, the webpage also tells me to input something along the lines of 2001:1970:5de5:d200: ..... and it wants me to complete this. In the command prompt i think it resembles the ipv6 address but I dont know for sure.

What I linked will help you with port forwarding, trust me. Just read it and you'll get what you need to know. You'll get to a point where it will direct you to what you want to port forward and you can go from there.
