Port Forwarding/QoS Related?

i'm sorry if this is a common topic, but nothing i found in the search really helped me...
i understand if a network port is closed it is forwarded in the modem/router settings to open it.

but my question is port 80 is used for http and web traffic and if iam able to access a website (assuming iam connecting through 80) so my port and the servers' port 80 is open.
but how to check it indefinitely, i mean i have come across no of sites that check my incoming ports but when i enter 80 in it they all seem to show that it is closed.
i do not understand this.

my 2nd question is based on qos, i have read wiki pages and all general explanations,
but how do i implement in my router.
i want to implement qos on a particular application that has provided me a list of ports it requires open

i have a beetel 450tc1, i have come across many pages but want a personalised opinion on it.

another thing: does qos requires that port to be forwarded, i also did forward my port 80 using my ipv4 address but how do i correctly check that it is usable?

thanks for reading all, if you could just answer a bit of it that would be enough.

Port forwarding only applies if you are hosting the server. Then the traffic in ingoing.

When you connect to a foreign server, the traffic is outgoing and no forwarding is needed. QOS doesn't need forwarding.

how can i implement qos through my router.
see the image for my qos settings

basically i want to add an online game to qos so that its packets travel faster..
