[EA4500] Multiple Devices with Open NAT?

Hello!
I have a PS3, PS4, Xbox 360, and Xbox One. The problem Im having and that Ive been having is keeping their NAT status to open. They are all assigned static IP addresses (which I made). What I do now is that everytime I want to use one of the devices, I go to my router settings and change the DMZ IP address to the static assigned IP of the device Im going to use.
While this works perfectly, its very annoying to switch from one devices IP to another and if another family member wants to use one of the devices, only one of us can have an OPEN NAT.
I already tried Port-forwarding from the listed ports on Microsofts/Sonys website and while certain features work, others tend not to. An example of that is on my Xbox 360, it tells me to open port 3074 and while this works for PartyChat and Halo, this probably wont work on Call of Duty. I already have the UPnP option set to Enabled and my routers firmware is up-to-date
My idea is to purchase another EA4500 (lets call it Router 2) and connect it to my main EA4500. Then, on my main EA4500, I DMZ the IP address of Router 2 (which I will make) and disable all security features of Router 2 to ensure everything is open. Ofcourse, only the 4 devices listed above will be connected to it so none of my computers get hacked but after disabling my main routers IPv4 and IPv6 firewall just to see the results, not all the devices get an OPEN NAT!
Another thing im looking at is "Port Range Triggering" and while I think this is the answer, I do not fully understand it and would like some help on telling me how it woks.
How can I fix this problem?
Thank you!

Hi  INeedHelpPlease101,
Having 2 routers in the network won't work for you. Who is your Internet Service Provider? I would suggest you configure the other EA4500 as a plain access point and make sure that you are getting a Public Internet IP address from the modem.

  • Multiple devices with the same GUID

    Hi,
    According to the Zenworks Command line utilities reference https://www.novell.com/documentation...a/bb15p2z.html
    There exists an option to register a device with a new GUID by doing the following...
    register (reg) [-g] [-k <key>] [-u <username> -p <password] <ZENworks Server addressort>
    Registers the device in a Management Zone.
    You can use the following options:
    g - Lets you create a new device object with a new GUID and password for the device if you have multiple devices with the same GUID. When you register a device by using this switch, all the associations (policies and bundles) assigned to the original device object are removed. You cannot use this option to create a new GUID for a Primary Server or a Satellite device. The local user must have Local Administrator rights to use this option.
    I would like to know if it is possible to have such a command line option for the agent installation. So built into the agent installer, a command line option to force the agent to register with a new GUID.
    We are having CONTINUOUS problems with the above scenario. When we move devices from one computer lab to another and re-image the device, Zenworks keps trying to assign the same GUID to the device and this mixes up our Dynamic Workstation groups, which then affect the applicable policies to each device.
    I would like to know if there is an option to tell the installer to stop remembering the GUID and simply register the device with a new guid on agent installation.
    This way we can build that into the post imaging scripts which install the zenworks agent.

    Hi Craig,
    OK, I've had a look at the ZCM Reconcile rules and run a few tests to see if it is possible to get the machines not to reconcile (use a new GUID after imaging).
    As I have explained before, sometimes this result is desired in our case especially when we move machines around from lab to lab.
    So far, no matter what configuration I use, I cannot get Zenworks to generate a new GUID for a device that is getting re-imaged (without doing so only after the fact by unregistering the machine and reregistering the machine via the zac und and zac reg -g).
    We use dynamic workstation groups to assign policies and bundles to machines so reconciling the devices is not necessary most of the time. We need an option to tell the machine to register with a new GUID on installation of the agent. Surely such an option can be built into the agent installer?
    The options in the ZCM config management "reconcile settings" I tested with are:
    Serial Number - Unticked/Unselected
    Mac Address - Unticked/Unselected
    Machine Name - Unticked/Unselected
    Enable Differentiation - Unticked/Unselected
    I then also tested:
    Serial Number - Unticked/Unselected
    Mac Address - Unticked/Unselected
    Machine Name - Ticked/Selected
    Enable Differentation - Ticked/Selected
    and also:
    Serial Number - Unticked/Unselected
    Mac Address - Unticked/Unselected
    Machine Name - Ticked/Selected
    Enable Differentation - Unticked/Unselected
    With all three different configurations, I re-imaged the same machine, which renames the machine via the first post imaging installation script to match the DNS name. Thereafter the Zenworks agent gets installed, which then renames the machine back to what it was registered into the Zenworks database with on first installation.
    We need a method of telling Zenworks NOT to reconcile when we want it to. It should not reconcile every time and thereby rename the machine netBIOS name.
    Is there any way to achieve this?

    The same thing could apply if bringing in new Hardware.
    If a new computer were to replace an old computer but the name stayed the same, everything could be automatic depending on the rules setup.
    It is all a matter of how you tell ZCM to reconcile devices.
    The Help in the ZCC under these items should explain how it works so you can setup your rules to meet your use cases.

  • WRT160N V2 - Connecting TWO Xbox 360's with OPEN NAT...a nightmare. :(

    Need to run two Xbox 360's on a WRT160N V2 both with open NAT.
    This must be possible...somehow.
    I've tried a few times through the linksys support chat (which seems to be gone now?) to get this working properly but always fails. I've got my http://192.168.1.1/ open, so please if anyone knows how this works that'd be just awesome.
    Both 360's are connected via wire. We want to be able to play the same games at the same time in the same party while both having an open NAT. Right now only one of us can have an open NAT while the other has a Moderate or Strict. We have plenty of speed, but that stupid NAT makes it nearly impossible for us to connect to games together. Then even when we DO connect to a server/lobby it takes forever for that lobby to fill up with other players as they can't connect to US. Painfully annoying.
    I DID do a search of this very forum and found a thread or two, but they are very long and I am having a hard time filtering what is correct or not. Too many people saying different things with no reponses as to whether or not their solution worked. I'm still reading through them, I'm not a technician in any sense and don't want to mess it up more than it already seems to be. I am capable of reading/following instructions, so if anyone knows I'll give you all my "One Free Internet" coupons.

    You can try this link and it will help you in setting up your XBOX with your Router. And for your 2nd XBOX Enable DMZ and assign a Static IP to your XBOX.

  • Assigning ports to multiple devices with HH5

    Im am trying to assign ports to each of my gaming devices (PS4, Xbox One and PC), these devices share some ports such as 3074, 80, 53, etc. I have set up the PS4, but when I tried to set up the Xbox One it wouldn't let me as the PS4 has duplicate ports.
    Is there any way to set up multiple devices with the same ports?

    You can only forward the same port(s) to one device.
    If you forget about using port forwarding, and simply allow uPnP to allocate the ports, then you should be able to use one device at a time.

  • WRT1900AC Problem With open NAT with multiple Xbox One's

    I am starting a new thread for some possible help with this. I have just recently replaced my r7000 with the wrt1900ac router and for the life of me cannot get my 2 xbox ones in the house to have open nat. Only one of them will show open NAT. Anyone get this to work and work 100% of the time? I have reseverved the IP's. I tried port forwarding.. I tried putting one in the dmz. I have tried port triggering. None of it works. One will be open the other stays at moderate. I have got it in strict before as well. I have upnp on. I cannot figure out what is wrong with it. Ideas? Also It seems my router reboot on its own and turning the LED's off after a reboot the wireless led's come on. Seems like a bug.

    Hewligun, found this on another Linksys thread, it appears that Linkysy may need to update their UPnP and all should be good. Original thread:Packet Dropping thread  Excerpt from thread: Re: WRT1900AC packet dropping[ New ] Options  ‎05-01-2014 06:16 PM  I did some research. Microsoft documents that port forwarding will only work for the one xBox in the forwarding rule. In the same document it mentions that the only way to have two xBoxes running at the same location behind a router is with UPnP. The UPnP protocol has be the newest version in order for it to work. I guess the WRT1900AC is running a later version of UPnP in which case a firmware upgrade will solve this. Keep in mind that Microsoft xBox Live itself is having documented issues as well so we can't really know for sure if the UPnP on the WRT1900 is the newer version or not at this point. Look at the affect services in the current xBox Live status: Affected platforms:Xbox Onexbox one outage;Social and Gaming,Xbox 360xbox 360 outage;Social and Gaming, Affected services:Accessing all game featuresJoining other Xbox Live members in online gamesPosting game performance or viewing the performance of other Xbox Live members https://support.xbox.com/en-CA/xbox-live-status

  • HT4914 Can you use iTunes Match on multiple devices with different apple id's ?

    I have multiple phones with the same iTunes ID but they have different apple ID , will the iTunes Match work with all my devices ?

    I've got the latest version of iTunes & it's supposed to be able to be enabled under top panel "store" then appear down left side panel to subscribe. Which makes me think that it musn't be able to be used if you're running XP as it's not there....

  • How do set up multiple devices with multiple graphs in labview

    Hello,
    I am new at LabView, and we are trying to setup a test rig to measure voltage, pressure and flow rates. We are currently using a NI-6009USB box and Labview version 8.2.  Our problem lies in setting up the actual measurements on separate graphs. How do i go about setting up the daq-assistant to measure mulitple devices, and graph them on their own graphs?  We also need to know how to program in when measuring flow, how to convert it from square wave form to a calibrated curve?
    Any help would be greatly appreciated!
    Nate

    When you configure the DAQ Assistant, you will be first asked to select the measurement type. Assuming that you have voltage sensors because you have the 6009, you select Analog Input>Voltage. You then get a list of devices. Since you only have one, it should be listed as Dev1. Expand that and then pick the channels you have connected to the sensors. Just like it says at the bottom of the of the channel window, you can select multiple channels with  <CTL> or <SHIFT> click. After you've done that, the next window is where you select your sample rate, number of samples, etc. You can also select a custom scale for each channel. This is where you would enter any formula you have from the sensor vendor in order to convert a voltage reading to scaled units.
    The output of the DAQ Assistant is a dynamic data type. You can wire this to a single graph to display all readings together or use the Split Signals function to break out individual channels for separate graphs.

  • 2 xboxes or ps3's with open nat for the rv042? yes i can!

    i signed up specifically to tell future and current rv042 users that after a year of muckin' around with this fairly advanced networking technology, i've finally discovered how to open the nat types of 2 xboxes, instead of one being open and all others being moderate or strict. i'll break it down simply, 3074 port forwarded for the one, and dmz host for the other one. i couldn't figure out for the life of me, why the dmz host wouldn't open the nat type of the 2nd xbox at first, thats when it dawned on me that xboxes aren't capable of understanding the rv042 dmz host. so i tested the dmz host on my computer and it worked, putting my computer wide open to all ports on the internet. so what i tried was internet connection sharing, plugging my xbox wired into my computer which is set as the dmz host. i was all excited, jumping up and down for joy when i had succeeded in what took me an entire year to figure out. why so happy, do you ask? i don't think all of you know just how painful it is to not be able to open the same port more than once on the same network, very, very, aggravating. if you are having the same problem and don't understand how to do what i've explained, just ask. i cannot stand the thought that there are others out there like me that haven't been able to figure this out, it just causes me more pain. i will help.

    I am having the same issue.  My roommate and I both have our own copies of MW3 and our own xbox 360's connected to the same router/modem. We have Verizon Fios and the modem is an Actiontec MI424WR. We have no problem playing at the same time online as long as we are not in the same match. However, when we try to play in the same match, we can never get into a match. It just keeps cycling through the "searching for matches screen.  We were at one point having issues with the OPEN NAT type but that has been solved, don't have me how, it just started working after I set the router back to defaults and we haven't had issues since.
    I tried the link above, but that doesn't seem to help my issue and I think you are having the same issue has me.  If you figure it out, please let me know.

  • WRT54GL issues with XBOX 360 Modern Warfare 2 chat (even with Open NAT)

    Hi,
    I read some posts about the subject but can't seem to make it work.  I have tried port forwarding, UPnP and DMZ on their own or all at once and the best I could do is to get an "Open NAT" in Modern Warfare allowing me to play online.  However, I can't hear other people talk when playing online.  I can tell they're speaking by watching the speaker icon beside their name in between games but can't hear them...  I can hear people in my private chat or party no problem.
    Can you guys help me?  It's hard playing domination without being able to communicate with teammates.
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    I am having the same problem that was described except I checked my XBox Live setting and it shows that I can chat with everyone (meaning no restrictions). I have check my routers settings (port forwarding, UPnP and DMZ, & Open NAT) just as was described but I still cannot hear any of the players, but they can hear me. I have been searching online for possible solutions and I have tried them all with no success. I have also spoken with XBox tech support on 3 different occassions. Can someone let me know what will work?

  • What is the best way to manage multiple devices with one iMac - different users with seperate itunes accounts or one mac user with different itune logons and libraries?

    Hello
    I have just purchased an imac which I am very happy with.  In our household we also have two iphones (one mine and one husbands) and one ipod (my sons). We all have individual itunes accounts set up on our previous computer (not a mac). We have sepereate apps and music, although there may be the odd occasion where we would like to share a song (if this is possible) across devices.
    I am just wondering the best way to manage these devices using the new imac.  Should I create individual accounts to logon to the imac, then from within these launch our own itunes accounts and sync our devices with these.  Or should I be using one version of itunes, logging on to this with our different itunes usernames and storing things in libraries.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated. 
    Thanks

    I am presuming that we cannot share downloaded apps and music between accounts because of the copyright issue,
    Though I'm no copyright lawyer, as long as it's within a household, you can share content among users. Such sharing is, absent specific language preventing it not present in the iTunes Store terms of use, generally considered to be "personal use". So you can share apps and music amongst your users on your computer and with their devices. You just can't give any of that content to friends or relatives who don't live with you.
    What I am not clear on, it making sure that this appears in each itunes account - is it easy to find the file storage folders that match the itunes accounts and what would these be?
    The iTunes library and files are by default in a user's Home/Music folder. But you don't have to find the folder; in fact putting a file into the folder yourself won't add the file to iTunes. Just drag the file into the iTunes window. iTunes will copy it to the correct location.
    Regards.

  • Multiple devices with one email address

    I have several devices with skype. I'd like any device to be able to call any other device, but only use a single email address. Basically, Is there any way to do this? How?

    Each user should have their own icloud account, otherwise they end up getting the same emails, contacts, calendars, notes, reminders, etc. - usually not what you want.  But if all have been sharing the same itunes ID, keep it that way, you can have different IDs for itunes and icloud.
    If you already have another icloud account, and want to set it up on a device, then go to Settings>icloud, scroll to bottom of screen and tap Delete Account.  This only disconnects the device from that account, no data is lost on icloud.  Then enter the account ID that you want to use.
    To create a new icloud account, go to

  • Facetime on multiple devices with same Apple ID?

    Hi...we have an iPad 1, iPhone 4S, iPod touch from 2010 and new iPod Touch yesterday.
    I have not set up the new iPod Touch yet...but all the other devices are using the same Apple ID so I can buy apps and allow all my devices to get the apps installed for free.  Great.
    How can I set up my new iPod Touch to use the same Apple ID and also do Facetime?  If I use the same Apple ID I would think that my other devices would start to ring when I try to Facetime.  No?
    If you know how to do this, can you please reply and give exact steps?
    Thanks so much in advance.
    -Eric

    @dutra - Your suggestion worked like a charm. I have two options setup under my daughter's name in Facetime: Touch and iPAd. All I need to do is choose which I want to call. Easy-peasy.
    @jeffreyfromorillia - This advice may be too late... But, register each device using your ID, as you should. Once this is complete do the following:
    1 - Go to SETTINGS on device A
    2 - Choose FACETIME
          - here you'll see your ID in the account field -- ignore it/leave it there.
         - below you'll see the email field, enter your daughter's email addy (you don't have to worry about the "+XXX"      unless she has more than once device because it applies only to the multiple device scenario)
         - IF you have used your email addy in the email field, click on Add Another Email and enter daughter's addy      here, then go back and choose your email addy and click remove
    You are good to go. Repeat same steps for your stepdaughter's device.
    If either girl has multiple devices you want to Facetime, follow steps 1 and 2, and in the email field click on Add Another Email and enter - [email protected] - then go back and delete orignal email entered. Do same for second device - [email protected], remembering to delete orginal email here, too.
    On your device go to Facetime and edit contact - it prolly shows HOME / WORK / OTHER, click on it and choose CUSTOM, name it iPod, then enter the NEW email "[email protected]" and do same for second device, customizing the field to read iPad, or whatever you choose... Now you should have two options to choose from for contacting Girl 1. Repeat for Girl 2.
    Hope this works for you, it worked out splendidly for me.
    Cheers.
