Employing encryption through router

[bub1401]

I would like to setup https encryption on my jellyfin server, and I know this is typically done by using certbot to generate an ssl certificate through a reverse proxy. But I have an Asus router in which I already have a domain setup complete with an ssl certificate registered with Let's Encrypt. Is there a way I can use my routers ssl encryption when accessing my media server, I tried using the https port set by jellyfin by default but only the http port works, and yes before you ask I double checked that the https port is accurate and yes I already have it port forwarded in my router settings.

The typical way is to setup Nginx or Caddy on the same host running Jellyfin. You'd configure Nginx/Caddy to handle https and proxy requests to Jellyfin. Some router firmware have the capability to run a web server, but you won't be able to install certbot to automatically handle cert renewal and updating the web server with the renewals.

Here is a walkthrough another user wrote for setting up Caddy as a https reverse proxy for Jellyfin.
