How do I open my NAT settings?

I have tried it all and still won't run open. I am running a wired connection to my Xbox360 and am unable to achieve open NAT status. I have tried enabling it as a host and also tried port mapping. Neither has worked. Any suggestions? Thanks in advance.

Unfortunately, the AirPorts are NOT on the list of recommended routers that Microsoft states on their Xbox 360 support site. Because of this and the fact that this router does not support UPnP, you may not be able to achieve Open NAT status for your Xbox.

    WRT54GS router
    How do I change my NAT settings?

    Ok let me ask this. Can anyone tell me exactly what settings I need to put my WRT54GS router on for my 360. Ports, DNS, QoS, MTU, or anything else that might help. Please leave in detail as I am very ignorant with this router. I had Verizon DSL that went straight from a Westell modem/router to the 360. I never had lag and was host for a lot of sessions. I have now switched to cable which gives me a faster connection 4664/238kbps but for some reason the lag is horrible. What I have done so far is download new firmware. Enabled DMZ host IP address. Enabled QoS. Here I had to put the upstream bandwith to manual with 100000kbps. Port priority on high with flow control enabled to the 360(port 2). I disabled flow control to 2 unused ports. Optimize gaming applications with highest priority to port 2. So I am completely lost from here as what else to do or undo. I don't know how to increase my upload speed as I was told upload speed is extremely important for gaming. I feel like pulling my hair out at this point and switching back to a slower connection just to get my system the way it was. Please anyone help as I am extremely frustrated. HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!??????????????

  • How do i change my NAT settings on my wrt54gs wireless router?

    when i go to play Halo 3 it says my NAT settings are strict and it lets me in the room but then it boots me right out. I was wondering how i change my NAT settings from strict to open?
    Thanks,

    Usually when you have NAT problems with xbox live it is because you dont have the ports forwarded. Here is the artical from Microsoft on this issue. http://support.microsoft.com/kb/908874 Message Edited by JjEjFjF on 05-18-2008 08:26 PM You should also set the MTU as discribed above. If it were an MTU issue,you would have gotten an MTU failure on the xbox connection test.

  • How do I open the bios settings for a MSI760GMP34FX mainboard?

    I know this is a stupid question but I have never had to do this before in my life and I tried googling it and I couldn't find anything helpful.
    I think something may be wrong with the bios settings on my computer so I need to know how to open them up to check and change them but I have no idea how to do it and can't find any instructions.  I think it's different for different types of mainboards from what I can tell but I am not sure.
    My OS is Windows 7 Pro 64 bit if that makes any difference and my board is a MSI760GMP34FX mainboard.
    Sorry if this is a stupid question but I have no idea how to do this.
    Thank you for your time.

     
    Well thanks again.  Hitting delete once on start up worked like a charm and now my Bluray burner drive is working good as new.  I thought it had broken down and I would have to buy a new one but going into the Bios did the trick.
    You saved me $70, thanks a bunch.

  • Opening the NAT of Two Xboxes on WRT54G v8 Router

    Hello everyone! I have two Xboxes and a WRT54G v8 router. Both Xboxes are connected to the WRT54G v8 router. How do I open the NAT of both Xboxes? Thank you!

    Disable the UPnP.
    The box said windows xp or better... So I installed Linux!

  • Opening NAT settings for Xbox

    So recently I tried opening NAT settings so I could use my Xbox Live more efficiently. Unfortunately, I know nothing about computer networking. Is there anything I can do to get this up and working?

    Unfortunately, the AirPorts are not listed as Xbox Live-compatible routers ... so there is no guarantee doing this will get Open NAT status for Xbox Live!
    The following web blog does a great job explaining the NAT issues with Xbox Live! Basically what it comes down to is that although you can get an Internet connection for the Xbox with the AirPorts, you may not get the necessary NAT setting (Moderate or Open) for the Xbox Live! on-line game that you want to play. As such, you basically have two options: 1) Create a DMZ (Apple calls this a Default Host) for the XBox or 2) Configure the AirPort for Port mapping to open the required ports to allow Xbox Live! access ... or 3) Use a compatible router.
    Option 1 - Create a DMZ
    AirPort Utility > Select the AEBSn > Manual Setup > Internet > NAT
    Enable default host at: <Enter the IP Address for the XBox>
    Option 2 - Configure Port Mapping
    The following ports must be available for Xbox Live to operate correctly:
    UDP 88
    UDP 3074
    TCP 3074
    To setup port mapping on an 802.11n AirPort Extreme Base Station (AEBSn), either connect to the AEBSn's wireless network or temporarily connect directly, using an Ethernet cable, to one of the LAN port of the AEBSn, and then use the AirPort Utility, in Manual Setup, to make these settings:
    1. Reserve a DHCP-provided IP address for the Xbox 360.
    AirPort Utility > Select the AEBSn > Manual Setup > Internet > DHCP tab
    Click the "+" (Add) button to enter DHCP Reservations.
    Description: <enter the desired description of the host device>
    Reserve address by: MAC Address
    Click Continue.
    MAC Address: <Enter the MAC hardware address of the Xbox or the MAC address of the wireless depending on how you connect the XBox to the network.>
    IPv4 Address: <enter the desired Private IP address>
    Click Done.
    2. Setup Port Mapping on the AEBSn.
    AirPort Utility > Select the AEBSn > Manual Setup > Internet > NAT > Configure Port Mappings
    Click the "+" (Add) button
    Service: <choose the appropriate service from the Service pop-up menu>
    Public UDP Port(s): 88, 3074
    Public TCP Port(s): 3074
    Private IP Address: <enter the DHCP Reserved IP address for the Xbox you created earlier>
    Private UDP Port(s): 88, 3074
    Private TCP Port(s): 3074

  • Changing nat settings to open on basestation (dual ethernet) for xbox 360

    i have a airport basestation (dual ethernet) and i have my xbox 360 plugged into the back using a ethernet cable and i have tried everything i know to open the nat(network address translation)
    settings and i tried everything i know to open a port but i am appearantly doing something wrong.... can anyone help?? please... my xbox connects to xbox live but i can play with very few people because of the nat setting.... suggestions?

    jfinley1, Welcome to the discussion area!
    This "open NAT" is a relatively new thing not supported by the dual Ethernet AirPort base station (ABS).
    How have you tried to map/forward/open a port?

  • My 2008 Mac Pro running Lion will not play HDV1080i60 footage in FCP 7. When I open the sequence settings, all HDV codecs are hdv1, hdv2, hdv3, and so forth. Anyone have any idea how to fix this?

    My 2006 - 2008 Mac Pro running Lion will not play HDV 1080i60 footage in FCP 7. When I open the sequence settings, all HDV codecs are hdv1, hdv2, hdv3, and so forth. However, when I open the project on my other Mac Pro running Snow Leopard and FCP 6, the footage works fine as it does on my newer Imac running Mavericks and FCP 7. I have tried a Quicktime update on the Mac Pro that the footage doesn't work on but it says that I already have the newest version of Quicktime installed. I have also tried reinstalling the Final Cut Pro Studio twice, still no fix. I'm completely out of solutions and need to be able to edit HDV footage on this machine. Any help would be great. Thanks.

    there was a recent software update that seemed to screw HDV up.  Do some searching here over the last month or 2 and you'll find a bunch of posts and some possible solutions.
    Worst case scenario, do as Shane suggests.  But might I suggest you take a look at the user tips section of the forum.  there are some great tips on how to prevent these sorts of problems by cloning your startup drive, etc.

    For sideloaded content the nook pulls the metadata from ePub file itself.  I would suggest looking at a program like Sigil or Calibre that will let you edit the metadata in the book to make it appear like you want.
    For the PDF vs ePub - No, that's the way PDFs work (think of them as graphics, not text), wheres ePubs are Web Pages - so  no you can't them to behave exactly alike without converting the files.

  • NAT settings Moderate can't get to Open

    I have spent 6 hours trying every tip I could find in past Apple Support Communities, Google searches, etc and while I can connect to XBOX live it is still giving me a NAT moderate setting warning.
    My modem is an Actiontec GT701-WG and my router is Time Capsule Firmware 7.6.  Ethernet connection of TC to iMac.  WiFi to Xbox from TC.
    I think my issue is double NAT by the modem and the TC.
    If I turn off NAT in the Actiontec modem, it requires a static IP address provided by my ISP, which I do not have.
    I do not use the wireless component of the modem because the Time Capsule gives a better connection.  So my thought is I don't want to bridge through the Time Capsule and downgrade my WiFi connection just to get an Open NAT connection on the Xbox Live Connection Test.
    I have enabled UPnP on the modem.
    I have enabled port mapping on the Time Capsule for the UPD/TCP ports 3074, 88, and 80 used by Xbox.
    I have manually assigned a static IP address in the XBOX network configuration, and matched it to the port mapping on the TC.
    I have set the DHCP address reservation in the Time Capsule for the Xbox IP address.
    I have unplugged in the order recommended and restarted.
    When I play a game online via Xbox Live, I can sometimes hear other players and sometimes I can not, sometimes I hear part of what they are saying.
    Am I overlapping strategies and making this harder than it is?
    Should I just be happy I can connect and play an Xbox Live game with Moderate NAT settings or am I missing something to create the Open NAT?

    There are at least 2 ways to fix that.. bridge the modem or bridge the TC.
    If I turn off NAT in the Actiontec modem, it requires a static IP address provided by my ISP, which I do not have.
    Not sure.. it depends on if your ISP supports pppoe.. if so you can use pppoe client in the TC without having a static IP.

    Ok, this is the way I would do it..
    Pick one device as the router.. the easiest is the modem.. as it uses upnp.. Apple doesn't use upnp which is a pain.
    So you need to bridge the TC.. this is easy. Go to airport utility and open the TC.. go to internet tab and down the bottom, connection sharing.. off (bridged).. update the settings.
    The TC will now become a wireless and switch.. plus hdd. You can use it exactly as before .. you may need to turn off wireless if the modem also includes wireless or set channels manually.
    The TC will create a wireless link between the modem router and the xbox.. but it is purely lan side.. no routing. Any issues are then to do with the modem router and you may need to troubleshoot there as well, or it might work fine.

  • Trouble using open NAT Settings with Airport Extreme

    I recently got an Xbox 360 and Xbox live. I have the Xbox wired directly to the Airport. Although the Xbox can connect to the internet, the process of finding other players is extremely slow. It can take up to ten minutes to find a game on Halo 3 for example. I quickly figured out that this problem is a result of the NAT settings on my Airport being set to strict by default. The Airport Admin Utility does not allow me to change the NAT settings to Moderate, it simply allows me to turn off NAT altogether. When I do that, it prompts me to manually enter several IP addresses, none of which I know. I have tried several addresses, and the Airport admin utility will accept them, but after I do this I am unable to connect to the internet at all, so my only option is to turn NAT back on.
    It doesn't make sense to me that a device as well designed as the Airport would not at least give the user the option of changing their NAT settings to moderate or turn NAT off completely. I'm sure there is a way to accomplish this, does anyone know how?

    Having similar problems, mine is XBox Live kicking me out during Halo games and showing a red connection (low). The Xbox seems to be connecting fineto eth airport (802.11n), so I think it has somethignto do with teh connection settings from the airport to the Internet (Comcast). It also takes a long time to set players. I have been looking for a good website for setting Airport configurations for XBox 360 and XBox Live. Has anyone found one?

  • Airport Extreme Model A1034...How do you OPEN NAT!?!....Will give points....Please help

         Hi I am wondering if anyone can help me out I currently own a Airport Exterme Base Station Model Number A1034 older version. My problem is with xbox live. I have always been able to connect wirelessly with my xbox 360 with no problems. I know in order to play Xbox live you have to have an OPEN NAT setting. Which im pretty sure I've always had because I would never get any problems. I have no idea what NAT means and I am not tech savy what so ever.
         Recently I decided I wanted to create a new network and delete my old one. I did so and everything was fine with the internet but my problem lies with my xbox live now. For some reason it's saying that I now have a Moderate NAT and I will experience difficulties when on xbox live. I am wondering is there a way to OPEN NAT? I tried looking for it in airport ulitlity and I found it but like I said im not tech savy. Under the NAT settings there are two options ENABLE DEFAULT HOST AT & ENABLE NAT PORT MAPPING PROTOCOL. I have no idea what that means I though it would just let you choose between Strict, Moderate, Or Open NAT but unfortunately it doesn't. So can anyone help me I will give points. Thank you in advance!!

    Please check out the following Apple Discussions post for assistance. Hopefully, it will address your Open NAT issue.

    Are you playing Game on the X-Box or on the computer...?
    Who is your Internet Service Provider...?
    If the ISP is DSL then,you have to convert the Modem into the Bridge mode.

    You will have to configure that with your router. Type your router's IP address in the search/domain bar and allow port forwarding.
    What is requiring you to have an open NAT? That issue is usually for gaming consoles, etc.
