Is the MQTT client listening on Port 1883?

It only affects the communication between the MQTT client and broker. Your MQTT client is not listening on port 1883 – it’s connecting to port 1883 on the broker. The broker is the one listening on port 1883 – that’s why you don’t have to open a port on your router.
