Select the network type as you see fit and click Next.

I recommend port forwarding, that way other users with a NAT firewall may be able to connect to you (not completely sure).

Select Allow the connection in the next window and hit Next. In qBittorrent, Tools->Preferences (Alt+O), Connection, and configure the listening port.

Add the protocol (TCP or UDP) and the port number into the next window and click Next.

Add the port you need to open and click Next.

Right click Inbound Rules and select New Rule.

Select Advanced settings and highlight Inbound Rules in the left pane.

Navigate to Control Panel, System and Security and Windows Firewall.
