Port Forwarding Rule Limit

Why is there a limit on how many rules you can make for port forwarding? I have a Hub 5x and I have 32 and now it wont let me add any more rules? I have never come across a limit like this before when I was with other ISP's.

    does the hub 5x have DMZ?

    and yet another reason to not like where ISP are going...wish for modem mode

      5x does indeed support DMZ.

        But does port 25 work? still not a true DMZ

    Get yourself a proper router, DrayTek or Netgear, that has a WAN input, connect this to your 5X hub using the 10g connector and then set up the new router to carry out the port forwarding, set your 5X router to DMZ to the IP address reported in your new router.
