I am trying to change my NAT type from strict to Open so i can play with my friends but i dont know how to do it on my Apple Airport. Help please?!?!
.
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 AirPort > 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 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 AirPort > 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 AirPort.
AirPort Utility > Select the AirPort > 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
Click "Continue"

hey i have a iphone 4s 64gb but and using the internet share .. how can i change the nat type from strict to open please help me
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. -
Trying to change my NAT type from Open to Strict or Moderate.
My NAT type is open but I can't get any games. I told my friend and he said try and change my NAT type from Open to Strict, and that it might help in joining games. I can join CoD4 games, but not MW2 or MW3 games. Can anyone help me? I am playing on XBOX360 and I use wireless internet.
A known issue with Linksys routers is the NAT Type 3 or anything related to dropping of Internet connectivity during play time. Network Address Translation (NAT) is the ability of a router or firewall to translate a public IP address to a private IP address and vice versa. It adds security to the network by keeping the private IP addresses hidden from the outside world.

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.
MattHi 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.
Cheers
David

my ipod touch is disabled for 22 million minutes and I want to fix it but I dont want to lose my pictures and everything else. Help please I dont remember the last time I updated it. Idk I think its been a year in an half since I known about it being disabled. What do I do? Im scared to restore it because I dont want to lose my stuff.
You have to restore and thus erase your iPod. that is how it works.
Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.
iOS: Wrong passcode results in red disabled screen
If recovery mode does not work try DFU mode.
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
For how to restore:
iTunes: Restoring iOS software
To restore from backup see:
iOS: How to back up
If you restore from iCloud backup the apps will be automatically downloaded. If you restore from iTunes backup the apps and music have to be in the iTunes library since synced media like apps and music are not included in the backup of the iOS device that iTunes makes.
You can redownload iTunes purchases by:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
Photos
- If they are in an iPod backup then restore from that backup. See the restore topic of:
iOS: How to back up
- If they are in the iTunes backup then get them from the backup by:
Recover iPhone, iPad or iPod photos from backups with Picturescue
- If you used PhotoStream then try getting them from your PhotoStream. See that topic of:
iOS: Importing personal photos and videos from iOS devices to your computer -
After upgrading my software i have seem to have lost all my contacts and photos, i did a back up but i have no idea how to get them back on? maybe im illiterate but i dont know how to find it in my itunes? please help!!

please help me try to contact the owner of this phone IMEI **** ICCID **** i got his phone now with me but i dont know how to contact them first time i got it low battery contact me
I will explan more how i got this phone
Call me +**** Micky Thai
<Personal Information Edited By Host>A long shot but you might try using the phone to send an email to the phone asking the owner to call their mobile phone. If the owner has a computer they may get the email and get in contact with you.
But Roger's suggerstion of turning it over to the police is the best bet.

what happens if your trying to update your ipod but its telling me i have purchases that has not been transferred to my itunes libary and its says i can still do it but im scared its gonna erase something but i dont know how to transfer things either!!!
Transfer the purchass by:
iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iOS device or iPod to a computer
In iTunes 11 use Control+B to show the Menu bar then go to iTunes>File>Devices>Transfer Purchases
If not transferred, the purchases will not be on the iPod after the update. -
I pre-ordered an album and i did not get it! i payed 14 some dollars for it and never received it i checked to see if i bought it and it said i did. i looked to see if i could re download the album but i dont know how please help!
If you are in a country where music can be redownloaded then it should show in the Purchased tab in the iTunes store app on your phone, and the Purchased link under Quicklinks on the right-hand side of the iTunes store homepage on your computer's iTunes. If it doesn't show there then does the Store > Check For Available Downloads menu option on your computer's iTunes find it ?
