NAT issues with 5 XBOX consoles on network

I have my other XBOXs connected to a 24 port switch but the one connected to the ea6500 directly gives me this moderate NAT issue. I thought this new router would be an upgrade to my old dlink but so far I get a new problem every day.
I have reserved dhcp addresses for all the boxes and set up port triggering for the ports listed in several guides. But what else do I need to do? Is it likely I got a bad router?

If your xbox is directly connected to the modem, do you have an open nat for your xbox? Have you tried forwarding the ports? If it did not work using port trigerring, try forwarding the ports then. One thing that you have to make sure if you do port forwarding is that you should be getting a public IP address on your router page. If you're not getting a public IP, there might be a need for your modem to be set to bridge mode. You may refer to this link for more info: http://www6.nohold.net/Cisco2/ukp.aspx?pid=80&vw=1&articleid=22385 (Resolving NAT type issues with gaming consoles through a Linksys router).
Btw, are you using the cloud firmware or classic?

E2000 NAT issues with my xbox. ive tried everything please help!

ive tried the dmz port range triggering, forwarding. ive done it all please help me all i want to do is a play little online.

what is the modem that you are using? some internet provider use a modem/router instead of a 'modem only' device.
if it is a modem/router they have NAT enabled, and this would cause Double NAT on the modem and on the linksys router, which would cause the port forwarding setup not to work.
if that is the case you need to ask your provider to set your modem/router to bridge mode or work as modem only. when that is done, then you can proceed to port forwarding by following the instructions here

E2000 NAT Problems for Multiple Xbox Consoles

Hey there.
My brothers and I recently all split the cost of a new E2000 Linksys router. I just got it home and set it up and it solved most of the issues we had been having with our Xbox's (kicking us offline, not allowing sign ins, etc.) which was wonderful. But now, we all hopped on to play a game and saw that one of us had an Open NAT, and the other two had Strict NAT's. I checked around a few posts here and followed a few instructions, and successfully got the 2 Strict NAT's to turn into Moderate NAT's. The only issue is thats still not enough. With a Moderate NAT, it isn't allowing me to join voice parties with my friends, simply stating it can't connect. It is driving me insane. Does anyone have any form of helpful hint for us? Remember, its for THREE Xbox's, running at the same time most of the time. I called Linksys and (after checking through his references) they told me it was a physical impossibility for 3 Xbox's to play on one router, but wouldn't explain to me how it had been working without a hitch, prior to recent problems, for 2 years So if anyone has an idea as to how I can get this working for the three of us, you'd have my undying gratitude. Thanks in advance!

I think you might have forwarded the ports on the router for the IP address of the Xbox. Instead of port forwarding use port Triggering. Change the MTU size to 1365. Disable the UPnP. Go to Security tab and uncheck the box 'Filter anonymous internet request'.

Connectivity issues with TC & Xbox 360

Has anyone experienced any issues connecting Xbox 360 wireless with the TC? TC works okay with my Macbook Pro and my wife's ibook. I have called support and have tried almost everything I can think of...I was just wondering if anyone has been successful with this.

The lack of Xbox connectivity is shaping up as a problem for many early adopters. Last December Xbox had a system update that, according to a list of new features, "added support to connect to Apple Extreme routers in 802.11a/n mode." However early adapters are choosing the 802.11a/n option in manual setup and the Xbox still does not recognize Time Capsule.
An older workaround for Airport Extreme routers had users set the router for "b and g only" (not n, b and g). This too seems not to work for Time Capsule/Xbox. The only success an adapter has had is with an Ethernet cable plugged directly from router to Xbox -- not an option when the two are in separate rooms.
Though I believe this is a problem with the Xbox, which rejects many n-class routers, I'm hoping someone here can suggest a workaround for wireless success.

Double computer name on network and NAT issue with Back to My Mac

These are the problems I am having:
When my MacPro workstation (which on the network is named "The Beast") wakes from sleep - I get a message saying "there is already a computer on the network with the name "The Beast". Other computers on the network can now find you at "The Beast-2"" and it gives me a new name in the file sharing preferences - even though it is the only computer on the network with that name.
Why is this happening???
The other problem is with BackTo My Mac - When I try to enable it - I get an error message saying "Turn off NAT Addressing" - which I thought was turned off since the AEBS is in Bridge Mode. Why is this happening?
Here is my network setup which consists of the Modem / Router from my ISP - an Airport Extreme Base Station and one Airport Express - which is connected to my MacPro via ethernet. The MacPro does not have an airport card installed and is running OSX 10.6.8 - all other computers / devices are running 10.7.x and iOS6).
VDSL Modem / Router (from Internet provider) with wireless turned off - (so it is not broadcasting a competing wireless signal) - connected via ethernet to my Airport Extreme Base Station.
Here are all the settings on the AEBS and the Airport Express: - I am using Airport Utility 5.6.1 on my Mac Pro running OSX 10.6.8 - so the setup prefs are different than the newer version of Airport Utility found on 10.7.x systems - but both work fine. Although I did notice that the option to allow ethernet clients to connect to the Airport Express does not exist (or I just didn't find it) in the newer version of Airport Utility.
Airport Extreme Base Station is set up as follows:
Wireless Mode: Create a Wireless Network
Wireless Settings:
Allow this network to be extended IS CHECKED
Radio Mode: 802.11n (b and g compatible)
Wireless Security: WPA/WPA2 Personal
Access Control:
MAC Address Access Control: Not Enabled
Internet Settings:
Internet Connection:
Connect Using: Ethernet
Connection Sharing: OFF (Bridge Mode).
TCP/IP:
Configure IPv4: Using DHCP
Advanced Settings:
Logging & Statistics:
Syslog Destination Address is blank (as in nothing appears in this field).
Syslog Level: 5 - Notice

MobileMe:
Back to my Mac is turned off - but if I try to turn it on I get an error message saying "Turn off NAT Addressing - which I thought was turned off since the AEBS is in Bridge Mode. Why is this happening?
IPv6:
IPv6 Mode: Link-local only
As stated - my MacPro with no wifi card - is connected via ethernet to an Airport Express which connects wirelessly to the AEBS for network and internet access.
Airport Express Settings:
Airport Settings:
Wireless Mode: Join a Wireless Network
Allow Ethernet Clients IS CHECKED
Wireless Security WPA/WPA2 Personal
Internet Settings: Are grayed out (as in I can't change these settings - I assume because they are being controlled by the AEBS) and read as follows:
Connect Using: Wireless Network
Connection Sharing: OFF (Bridge Mode)
TCP/IP:
Configure IPv4: using DHCP
All other settings are identical to the AEBS.
All other WiFi devices in the house (MacBook Pro, iPhones, iPad's, iMac, Apple TV, Nintendo Wii etc…all are able to connect to the network and connect to the internet - no problem.
Thanks for any insights into what might be causing the double name on the network and why it is asking me to turn off NAT addressing - when both my Airport devices are in Bridge Mode?

I am also having this issue... any updates on this??

Having issues with 2 xbox 360 slims connected with an Open NAT

I have 2 of the newer xboxes connected via an actiontec MI424-WR Rev. E and I'm having issues getting an Open NAT on either. 1 is connected via Ethernet and 1 is connected wirelessly. My router is also connected to my computer. I havetried portforwarding and using a dmz host on 1 resulting in 1 360 having an open NAT(wireless one) and the wired one having a moderate NAT. Anyway I could get them to work together without asking Verizon to send me a new router or buying a new one. Please help.

I am having this issue also. I think the UnPNP is broken on the ActionTec. I may be getting rid of FiOS for this reason. I had 3 Xboxes working from my DSL connection and LINKSYS router no trouble. Very disappointed ! I was hoping to get a poll going so I posted my similar issue.

Issues with Time Capsule or Home Network Setup

I have the following network:
{if this image does not come through well here is a link to one: http://daviddwight.smugmug.com/photos/i-WTzcHBn/0/XL/i-WTzcHBn-XL.jpg }
Bill of Materials:
2Wire DSL Modem (also set up making a wireless network)
Ethernet running from Modem to Apple Time Capsule (also making a wireless network)
Time Capsule hooked to 27" iMac (OS 10.7.2) via Ethernet
Time Capsule hooked to a powered USB Hub
2 printers connected to hub
2 external disk drives connected to hub
wireless devices are an xBox, 2 iPod touches, and iPhone, an iPad, a MacBook and an AirPort Express hooked to a Stereo
I have an AirPort Express I don't use
The iMac Time Machine uses the Time Capsule
Everything works except:
the AirPort Express music drops out often
but more importantly I want to have the MacBook use a partition on one of the external disk drives for its Time Machine storage - it always has trouble mounting the drive, it will crank for hours and then give an error
Every once in a while I get an error that says something like "another device already using this IP address"
I think I may have a problem with DHCP or NAT or something
Can someone help provide some advice

Nice pic!!
Is the imac and MBP using Lion?
Is the TC running 7.6 firmware?
Has the issue existed since you put this together or happened subsequent to firmware or OS upgrades?
To some extent what you answer to the above will alter the advice.. but I would try a network rearrange which I know is a real pain.. a lot of work and I cannot promise it will solve things.. but I would like you to run the modem in router mode and the TC in bridge. Set a very short dhcp lease on the 2wire.. 10min.. the renewal of IP will not affect network performance in signifcant way.. but will help keep arp tables up to date.
Use manual setup for wireless on the TC.. fix the channels and make sure security is set WPA2 with a decent passkey.. and set all the names of things (and passwords) to no spaces.. no special characters.. straight alphanumeric. Wireless bridging will handle fixed channel much better than auto.
This could all achieve nothing.. but it is hard to track the issue.
You should also study the log of the TC.. but it does not seem to report an awful lot.
Do any devices have static IP set? If not then the TC is not handling DHCP very well if you are getting duplicate IP addresses. That is why I want you to try something else as the main router.
For devices like the printers. I have to admit being surprised you can manage both printers. USB hubs are a bit notorious for being a mixed bag.. if things go wrong with external USB drive I would be looking at finding a more compatible powered hub. Since these a cheap anyway.. it is finding one that agrees with TC or AEBS.. do a google search for what people are using.. again nothing might fix the problem.. but if you try something different.. hopefully with a different chipset.. it helps narrow the issue.
BTW plug the hug into the Mac and your system profiler will show lots of info about the USB device.

Having issues with Overdrive Media console...

I have been using Overdrive Media Console to download audio books for about 6 months now.....but I recently upgraded to the iPhone 4S and since then, I will download books and transfer them to my iPhone, says that transfer was completed successfully, but when I unplug it from my laptop (Windows 7), they don't show up on my phone......under the audiobooks it says that I don't have any audiobooks and that I can download some in iTunes. I have done a search on the phone as well and they are not showing up at all. But when I plug it back into iTunes, there they are, right under books when I look at the content on my phone through iTunes.
I don't really know if this is a problem with the iPhone 4S, or iOS 5........it worked with no problems at all on my old 4 and iOS 4.3.
Any ideas why this is happening and what I can do to fix it? iTunes and Overdrive Media Console are all up to date and no settings have been changed since I last used it with my iPhone 4.
I listen to a lot of audio books and I am getting really tired of being chained to my laptop to listen to them, either through the actual Overdrive Media Console, or through my phone, plugged in and playing through iTunes.
Thanks for any advice on how to fix this.......

I am having the same exact problem. I really hope this issue gets addressed soon. I am an audiobook junkie. For the person above. My 3G iphone still works with the overdrive media and the new iTunes software on my computer, so I am guessing it has something to do with the iOS 5.
This really does stink! I listen to audio at least 7 hours a day. I answer calls as they come in with my bose headphones, and I was so looking forward to using siri with my headphones as I was driving. Now my new phone will be in my purse and my old phone will still be connected to my hedphones listening to my audiobooks. Someday I hope to get this whole set up actually in sync and compatible with each other. I love my new Iphone 4S though. What an awewsome phone!!

Issue with LDAP Connection becuase of Network issue

Hello All,
We have some network issues going on which is causing the NIC (Network interface card) to failover to another NIC. Due to this failover SUN access manager's LDAP connection pool fills up and we see errors in logs "Directory is down". We have to restart the Access manager to resolve this issue which refresh the connection pool of LDAP.
Now we have set the setting as recommended in admin guide/tuning guide. Like
1. Set event connection idle timeout to less that firewall or loadbalancer idle timeout value.
2. event connection retry count and interval on perticular error code.
Despite of above settings its not working out. Is there other way to get all the stale connections back to the LDAP pool without restarting the server?
Or something which handles the network failover or failback?
Regards
Chetan Kulshrestha

The user search name is the value you should be looking at in the LDAP attributes, that's the one that it will send to LDAP on a logon attempt. If you changed this value after mapping a group, I'm not sure but you may have to remap the group to get the change.
So on the LDAP side verify the user search attribute = the username you expect to login with (i.e. cn, samaccountname, uid, etc)

Tim

NVGRE NAT Issues with Update Rollup 5

Hello I'm looking to see if anyone is seeing the same situation when deploying a new NVGRE gateway after UR5.
In my test I have a Created a Front End Network on a Logical Switch. There is a Logical Network and Network Site is 10.0.0.0/24. I create a Front End Pool of 10.0.0.5-10.0.0.50.
I have a NVGRE Gateway provisioned to use this Front End Network and HVN Tenant Network as the Backend. All is good there.
Now I go to set the Connectivity on one of my Tenant VM Networks. I tell it to use NAT. For NAT Translation I set the IP to 10.0.0.20. Hit oK, and away it goes.
Now if I go to the NVGRE Gateway and IPCONFIG, I can see that it has created the 10.0.0.20 Address on my Front End NIC, however, it has put the Subnet Mask to
255.255.0.0 ? I'm really not sure why the IP is being created and not abiding by my IP Pool and Network Site definition which has a Subnet of 255.255.255.0?
Anyone else seeing this issue?
Thanks,
Jason

In addition, as a Test I add a new additional Add-NetNatExternalAddress on 10.0.0.21/24
Then if I Issue..

Issues with Airport Extreme/Express/PS3 network

I have searched and searched and cannot find the answer to my problem. In my house I have an Airport Extreme, a Linksys switch, and an Airport Express all creating my wireless/ethernet network in the house. Since day one, my PS3 joined our network and I have been able to get online, no problems. Recently though I have decided to attempt to get the horribly difficult NAT type 2 with no success.
Right not I have the Extreme acting as the WDS main and the Express (which delivers perfect connection to the PS3) acting as a WDS remote in Bridge mode. The Extreme is sharing a public IP and I have a DHCP reservation for my PS3 (using the default 10.0.1.253 IP) along with all the PS3 necessary ports forwarded. I have also set up the Extreme to set my PS3 as the default NAT host.
My problem is that I get a "Conflicting DHCP Range" error. I also get a lot of warning messages every now and then saying "10.0.1.x is already in use by *MAC address* 10.0.1.1". I still can get on the internet with my computers and PS3 but I have noticed that signing onto PS network works very rarely.
I absolutely cannot make sense of this. I also don't have my NAT 2 so can anyone help me.

Is the PS3 connected to the express over WiFi or plugged into the ethernet port on the express or both?
You should not need forward ports and set the default NAT host. Just setting the default NAT host will forward all traffic that is not sent to another host to the PS3. I would recommend forwarding ports instead of using default host for security reasons.
You could also try setting static IP info in the PS3.

Hi Abrante
thanks for your response but the issue of tftpboot still seems to be there. I am unable to find the issue here. We users try to load their images from the /tftpboot directory on the routers they get the following error messages
Error loading file: errno = 0x3c.
Can't load boot file!!
They are able to connect to another tftpboot server without any issues at all. I am not sure if I have missed out any configuration parameters while enabling tftp. Is there anywhy I can find tftp log files on the server.

Another issue with Mac+PC & Airport Express network

Okey here's my problem. Yesterday i got my very first Mac (iBook 12") and i'm very happy about the computer in general. I also have Airport Express wireless base station. My other computer is table-PC and it has Planet WL-8314 PCI wireless card in it. I have ADSL-modem that i used with ethernet connection.
Now i want to connect Airport Express to ADSL so that both computers could get wireless internet connection and PC could be able to connect to speakers with Airtunes.
iBook connects to Airport Express very easily. No question there. But my Windows XP (service pack 2) PC is driving me crazy. I have configured the network using the admin utility from iBook. I've tried fully open network, use mac-address, WEP and WPA, but nothing works. I've installed Airport Express applications to windows as well but it doesn't connect.
Here is my current settings (Hope i can translate them correctly to english, i'm using finnish).
Encryption: WPA2 Personal
Encryption type: WPA OR WPA2
Connection: Ethernet
DHCP is in use
Share IP-addresses "checked"
by sharing one IP-address (DHCP and NAT) (use 192.168.1.1. addressing)
As i said i've disabled encryption, used mac-addresses and even made it fully public but nothing helps.
When i configure Airport Express from iBook my PC shows the network and does recognize the name of the network correctly and even if there is an encryption in use or not. If i'm using WPA and trying to connect, my PC asks for password but when i give the correct password it just stays stuck - nothing happens. The same thing when i try to connect without any encryption and passwords. It just tries and tries and tries... and fails.
This feels pretty hopeless. And the weird part is that yesterday i got it work for maybe an hour or so. Then Windows crashed and when it loaded again the same settings did not work anymore. So there are really weird things happening. And that period when it was working the admin utility worked in PC as well.
So any ideas what i could do. I'd really apreciate any help that can guide me to make my network fully work. So far it works perfect only with iBook - well better than nothing .
iBook G4 Mac OS X (10.4.3)

The connection i managed to establish last night didn't last very long. When i restarted Win XP, the connection was lost again. Anyway now i think i have solved the problem. All i had to do was to not set Windows XP take control over wireless network configure. This was done through unchecking one option. Then i could open wireless network adapter's own configuration tool and establish a connection to Airport Express wireless network.
So basically i had to punch Windows XP's native tools down in order to get the connection work at all. It just amazes me why such feature exists if it doesn't work.. Anyway i'm happy now and hope this discussion with myself in this thread might help some other as well .
