Nope, only 1 xbox can connect to the 2wire unit at one time.  Other users have added a router behind the RG to connect more xboxs.

  • Open NAT Type for three xbox 360s on E3000?

    I have three xbox 360s (mine plus my son and my daughter)...I have my settings set to where when myself and my son are on our 360s our NAT type is open...but as soon as my daughter gets on hers the whole thing goes to strict....

    Just a question though:
    Are you experiencing this when you are playing the same game in the same network with your son and daughter?  what are the settings of the other router? 
    have you tried these steps?

  • Trying to get Open NAT Type on 2 Xbox 360's at the same time

    After buying 3 new routers in a row trying to find a compatible router at my last house with Comcast, I finally found one that works then move to a house with Fios. I LOVE the speed... but this modem/router took our nat issue back to square one... obviously we're trying to play CoD: MW3 together, but we're both getting moderate NAT. I read a couple posts on the forums here and nobody could offer up a solution (looks like it has something to do with a NAT table that's too small or something?)
    Anyway, I came up with a potential solution but it's something I've never done before, maybe someone else knows how:
    I'm trying to connect my old dlink router to the actiontec router's internet connection, then have the xbox's connected to the dlink router with dhcp enabled. my theory is to make the actiontec router accept whatever traffic is coming through the dlink router, without knowing what devices are connected to the dlink router.
    in this way the dlink router could potentially control the NAT between the xbox's via UPnP by itself, and the actiontec router would have the xbox live ports forwarded to the dlink router's ip address.
    Am I crazy, could this work? so far I have the dlink router on a seperate subnet (192.168.0.1) while the actiontec is 192.168.1.1. the dlink router can ping machines on the actiontec router's network but not vice versa. also the dlink router cannot access the internet through the actiontec router yet. which is why i'm here. if this could work, can anyone explain how to set it up?

    to get both working, you must enable uPNP on your router. If you are connecting your xboxes to your Actiontec, same rule applies. There is no way to allow two xbox's to connect with OpenNAT without uPNP.
    Your best bet (if you can't move the actiontek behind your D-LINK) is to hook the two xbox's up to the Actiontec (preferable wired, but wifi should work).
    I have 2 xbox's running fine with uPNP enabled. Both have OpenNAT.

  • XBOX LIVE. HOW TO CHANGE NAT TYPE FROM MODERATE TO OPEN, HELP:(

    I am completely stumped. I am not a technical person but I'll explain the best I can. I have an airport express.. that's connected to my westell wirespeed modem which gives wireless internet to all my computers at my house.
    i also play xbox. i use the internet sharing feature on one of our mac mini's to connect to the xbox. however, the nat type is moderate. i have no idea how to change this to open. please help cuz its frustrating because i pay 60 dollars a year and i do not get the most of my subscription. for example, i can't join party's or join some games..
    and also, i read online that if i put my ip address to the address bar, you could change your nat type. but the problem is, every ip address i put into the address bar, nothing comes up. in my airport utility, it says my ip address is like 10.0.1.1.
    i am so confused. please help!!!!!!!!!

  • How to Change the NAT Type of an Apple Router

    My dad just bought an apple Router and some new modem. now since i know the router is apple company i want someone to tell me how i change its NAT Type from Strict to either Moderate or Open because its preventing me from connecting to my friends on xbox live. Im also using a Macbook Pro for a computer so its apple software an their shouldnt be any reason this cant be resolved effectively i just need a guide to tell me how to go about fixing this problem.

    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

  • How to change the NAT type to Open on a Imac using bridged connections

    Hey everyone I have a problem. I play xbox live with my friends and i just moved and dont have a wireless adapter anymore. so i have bridged connections with my imac and xbox via ethernet. It works perfectly, but the only problem is that when i connect it say that my NAT type is strict. To play with all my friends i need a open NAT type. Does anyone know how to make the NAT type on the Imac open. And i do have a D-link router model DIR-625. When i called D-link they said to port forward, i did and it still didnt work, they said it must be the fire wall on the mac, microsoft said the same thing, that it might be the fire wall. I checked the fire wall and it said "All Incoming connections are allowed".
    I would really much appreciate it if someone helped me. Thank you!

    Yes, most likely. Microsoft has provided a list of XBox LIVE!-compatible routers. Since the OS X Internet Sharing feature is limited, there is no way to configure port mapping or placing the XBox in a DMZ with it. Typically, you either use a compatible router or configure port mapping/DMZ for non-compatible routers.

  • Changing NAT type from moderate to open for PS3 on...

    Hello,
    Pretty simple really.
    I want to be able to change my NAT type from Moderate to Open whilst playing FIFA 12 on the PS3.
    I am using a BT Home Hub 2. I have read various posts about Port Forwarding and DMZ but what is the method that will open the NAT type indefinitely. I have read that it can only be altered temporarily due to the Home Hub updating it's settings periodically and re-enabling the firewall.
    Any help or pointers in the right direction would be greatly appreciated.
    Matt

    Hi Matt,
    Welcome to the forum and thanks for posting. Take a look here for some information on port forwarding. I've also found this whcih you might find useful. Let me know if it helps.

  • Help. Don't know how to change my nat type from 3 to 2 on the ps3.

    I'm wondering if I can get some help with changing my nat types I currently have a wep password. Does that affect the connection? If not I could really use the help. Tried to talk with my friend and play a online game and could not connect. I would appreciate the help.

    Not necessarily but I'm sure there's people out on the network who play games that have answers to my particular question

  • Can't change NAT type from moderate to open.

    Hi, this is my first post.
    As the title says, my NAT is always moderate in CoD BO2 on the PC, when i was with Virgin cable it was always open.
    It being moderate is causing me disconnection problems, which is a huge PITA in gaming.
    Things i have tried in order to correct the problem :
    1. I have forwarded all of the correct ports.
    2. I have turned off the homehub's firewall.
    3. I have given the PC a static IP address (in the correct range, i've worked in IT for over 20 years now).
    4. I have turned off the Windows firewall (which was allowing BO2 anyway).
    Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

    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.

  • Setting my NAT for use with XBOX 360

    I am having an issue with playing with certain friends on xbox live where their NAT is usually Moderate. Mine seems to fluctuate randomly between Open and Moderate and our connections always seem much better when they are both Moderate (they are the limiting factor, I think it's their ISP). I would like to know how to set the Time capsule so I can set my NAT to Moderate when I play with these folks and back to open other times. I know how to go into the 360 network settings and then I go into manual network setup, but I don't know the numbers to type in, and I also don't know how to connect to the time capsule's setting page. Is that on the web or is that a preference page on the mac somewhere. I haven't been able to find anything online on how to set the NAT to moderate, as I understand OPEN is generally better in most circumstances, any help would be much appreciated.

    The TC can be used in bridge mode plugged into the router.
    Yes, I should have been more clear. When you turn NAT "off", the TC will be in Bridge Mode. But, only one device will be able to connect to the Internet in this setting. If that device is the Xbox, fine.....but other users might not be pleased about this if they want to connect to the Internet as well.
    I think LaPastenagure nailed it when he noted that Apple products do not appear on the list of Xbox compatible devices.

  • How to open the proper port for your xbox 360 on a NVG589 router for optimal online gaming

    This took me a while to figure out on my own, so hopefully this will save someone else the trouble. My Xbox 360 said my setting were moderate.  Step 1: In your internet browser, type this http://192.168.1.254 into your address bar Step 2: Click on the tab at the top that says Firewall  Step 3: Click on the sub tab that says NAT/Gaming Step 4: In the drop down box located under the heading "Application Hosting Entry" Scroll down the option that says "XBox Live 360" and select it Step 5: In the second drop down box under the same heading find your Xbox 360's ip address and select it. If you don't know you Xbox's ip address it can be found on your console Network settings, select your connection, then select configure network, under basic setting will your ip address, remember that,  Step 6: Click Add  Step 7: Restart Xbox, everything should be running smoothly online Step 8: Profit!

    I have an Xbox 360 Elite connected straight to my Linksys Router WRT54G Version 5.0 When I start my Xbox 360 it shows me an error that my NAT is not open. Can any one show me what changes I have to do on my router, and please explain step by step if can.

    Log in to routers set up page using http://192.168.1.1 ……you will get username & password screen ….leave username blank & under password use admin.
    Click on “Applications & gaming tab” open ports 88 & 3074 for the Ip address of X-BOX .Use the same Ip,subnet mask, gateway & DNS numbers for configure the network settings on X-BOX….click on save settings
    Click on security uncheck “Block anonymous internet request”…click save settings.
    Click on set up look for MTU ….. Make it on “Manual” change the size to 1365…save settings.
