Opening ports for my xbox live NAT type

I need help on how to open the ports needed to successfully pull my NAT setting from "strict" to "open" on XBox Live. Those of you here that have it, probably know what Im talking about.
The ports I need to open are the following:
UDP 88
UDP 3074
TCP 3074
Ive tried already, but it didnt work. I think I did something wrong.
Thanks

Hi AEX,
First thing you have to make sure is that, you have to assign a static ip address on XBOX like 192.168.1.10, with subnet mask of 255.255.255.0, and gateway 192.168.1.1
Now Forward the ports you have to this static ip address, which you assign to your XBOX
Also make sure you are running latest firmware on your linksys router. You can check from www.linksys.com/download , If it is not latest, download and update to latest version.

I have a airport apple router for my xbox live but and on my xbox live my NAT type is 'strict' how do i change it to 'open'

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
Click "Continue"

Open ports for all in LAN

Hi, a few days ago I bought a wireless router WRT160n. I want to ask how to open some port for all in LAN(3 clients). For example all in LAN have PeerToPeer application for torrents. I want to open port for example 20202 for all. Now I open port from menu Applications & Gaming->Single Port Forwarding, but I must set port for each user IP address.
Can somebody tell me how to open port for all in LAN without to config for each computer?
Thanks in advance.

Hi gv. I read more about UPnP and the WRT160n User Guide. In section Administration>managment int wrote that UPnP is Enabled by default in my router it is corect. I Setup mu PeerToPeer(eMule) TCP/UDP ports to 20202 and check option "Use UPnP to setup ports". I test and close this port on my router configuration for my computer on "Single Port Forwarding", but in eMule the port is still block. Can you explain why it did not work. For UPnP it says that if Enable it allow users with Windows ME and XP automatically to gonfigure Router ports
Thanks in advance!
Best Regards.

Do I need to open ports for NTP?

I just noticed that my hwclock was off by nearly 30 seconds. It's almost certainly due to the recent initscripts update.
As I was looking into resetting the clock, I found out that openntpd is deprecated so I've switched to ntp, configured the daemon, reset the time with ntpd -q, and started the daemon. The time is not accurate again.
I remember back when I first installed Arch I tried to set up ntp but it didn't seem to work, so I tried openntpd and stuck with that. I reached the conclusion that ntp required open ports, which I felt was unnecessary given that openntpd could do the same thing without open ports.
Now that I'm looking at it again, I can't find any definitive answer...
Do I need to open ports for ntp if I only want to sync the system that it's running on?

ISC ntpd (the ntp package) will open UDP 123 on all your interfaces regardless of what you do with it. It will work anyway even if you block this port in iptables, assuming that you're allowing responses to established traffic as usual - your outbound mobilization requests to your chosen servers will be enough to allow the responses, and the same with further traffic sent for the lifetime of ntpd. Using iptables like this is probably the easiest way to secure ntpd.
There's also some defense in depth you can do:
- run ntpd as non-root
- run it chrooted to some safe directory (really only makes sense when doing non-root as well, since root can break out of a chroot)
- apply ntpd's built-in access controls (see examples in ntpd.conf, and full docs in ntp_acc(5))
I accomplish the first two of these by chowning /var/lib/ntp (and any contents) to ntp:ntp (so ntpd can write ntp.drift there when non-root), by using a driftfile path relative to the chroot in ntp.conf, and by setting NTPD_ARGS="-g -i /var/lib/ntp -u ntp:ntp" in /etc/conf.d/ntp-client.conf.
For the third, I chose to not allow any remote traffic to initiate anything with my ntpd, with this /etc/ntp.conf:
server ac-ntp0.net.cmu.edu iburst
server ac-ntp1.net.cmu.edu iburst
server ac-ntp2.net.cmu.edu iburst
server ac-ntp3.net.cmu.edu iburst
server ac-ntp4.net.cmu.edu iburst
restrict default nomodify nopeer noquery
restrict 127.0.0.1
driftfile /ntp.drift
Note the two "restrict" lines. The first shuts out remote access of most kinds, and the second allows the local machine all the access that would also be denied to it as well otherwise by the first rule. Note also the driftfile path, relative to the chroot of /var/lib/ntp/.
With all these security features, ISC ntpd can be just as safe as openntpd.
The use of the "iburst" keyword on the server lines to recover more quickly from out-of-contact conditions is also quite nice, and not rude to the remotes like "burst" would be.
One of the nicest other features of ISC ntpd is that it's smart enough to notice when network state changes occur, like bringing a VPN up/down, changing routes, or switching from wired to wireless and back. openntpd tended to just lose connections in these cases.

Do I need to open ports for my services if I am connecting through VPN

Hi,
I work in a small office and we are trying to connect people remotely to our server through VPN.
Using the Server App I managed to make VPN work and successfully connected to our file share points, so that means file sharing worked without opening ports for afp on my Airport router.
On the other side I cant connect to other services as iCal and Address Book as I am locally in the office. Does that mean I have to open the ports for those services on the router, if yes then why use VPN in the first place.
Thanks,

If I understood you correctly:
External client -> (server.domain.name) -> Router -> Server: is working
Internal client -> (server.domain.name) -> Router -> Server: is not working
Internal client -> (local ip) -> Server: is working
If yes, you can implement a-la "split zone DNS".
1. On the external DNS your domain name server.domain.name resolved to the external router IP.
2. You should add record (and zone) server.domain.name to your OS X Lion Server DNS pointing to local IP
When you are connected to VPN, system sets DNS server to your Lion server and server.domain.name is resolving to local IP.
When you are working without VPN, system use external DNS and server.domain.name is resolving to external IP.
Of course, you should open ports for your services on the router is you want to use them from external network.
I am using this configuration and it works perfectly.

Do i need to open port for crash plan online backup service

do i need to open port for crash plan online backup service?
Thanks!

Possibly. I would start by checking out this CrashPlan support article. CrashPlan does require certain ports on both your computer's and network router's firewall to be open in order to communicate properly.

How to open Ports for App running in VPC

Trying to open ports for a Windows app that I am running via VPC but the application still shows the port is unreachable.
So far I have, opened the port in Mac OSX Firewall, opened ports on my D-Link DSL504G router, disabled the Windows firewall (plus opened the ports in case it became enabled).
Have also redirected the ports to the IP address within VPC Windows and the Mac itself.
Have run out of ideas as nothing seems to work.
Regards
Alan

Try the following ...
AEBSn - Port Mapping Setup
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 host device.
Internet > DHCP tab
o On the DHCP tab, click the "+" (Add) button to enter DHCP Reservations.
o Description: <enter the desired description of the host device>
o Reserve address by: MAC Address
o Click Continue.
o MAC Address: <enter the MAC (what Apple calls Ethernet ID if you are using wired or AirPort ID if wireless) hardware address of the host computer>
o IPv4 Address: <enter the desired IP address>
o Click Done.
2. Setup Port Mapping on the AEBSn.
Advanced > Port Mapping tab
o Click the "+" (Add) button

What could be issue ???

Hi,
Error:
GGSCI (ggtarget) 16> start replicat RLOAD
Sending START request to MANAGER ...
ERROR: opening port for MGR MGR (Connection refused).
You can start Manager, but when you try to start Replicat, GGSCI gives me a connection timeout error
Solution:
GoldenGate uses a TCP/IP socket to communicate between local processes. When you issue a START, STOP, SEND, or other command in GGSCI, the command interface will try to open a local port for the process.
Here is how to find out which local ports these processes are listening on. In the dirpcs directory, there will be one file for each running GoldenGate process.
For Manager, the file name will be MGR.pcm.
For Extract, it will be <GROUP_NAME>.pce.
For Replicat, it will be <GROUP_NAME>.pcr.
These are text files that can be viewed by using cat or any equivalent command. For example, the MGR.cpm file content will read like this:
PROGRAM MGR PROCESSID MGR PORT sys1.4356 PID 60070
After the keyword PORT will be the local hostname and the port number that Manager is supposed to be running on. In the preceding example, the hostname is sys1, and the port is 4356.
The program (ggsci) tries to use that hostname to communicate to the process (Extract/Replicat/Manager) when the command is issued in GGSCI. If you get a timeout or connection-refused error on the command, that means GoldenGate could not connect to the local host. Most of the time, you should have no problem connecting to a local host, but when you have the wrong IP address or routine table configured in your TCP/IP settings, connection errors can happen.
To troubleshoot this, follow the steps below
1. Try to ping that host name from the OS shell to see if it goes to the correct IP address (which should be the one for the local system).
2. If the ping is successful, try to telnet to the Manager port on your local host. You will be able to see your telnet session connect if a Manager is listening on that port.
Here is an example:
shell>telnet
telnet> open sys1 4356
Trying 100.100.100.100...
Connected to sys1.oracle.com (100.100.100.100).
Escape character is '^]'.
3. If your telnet session times out or gets a connection-refused error, that means either the hostname is wrong or the port number is wrong.
If the ping to the hostname listed in the pcm/pce/pcr file fails, or if you cannot connect your telnet session to the port listed in the file(s), contact your network engineers to get the TCP/IP issue resolved.
Hope this information helps.
Thanks & Regards

How to forward/open ports for WRT54G?

Hi. I recently bought a WRT54G because my old router was destroyed by lightening and thunder. I have managed to set it up, and got the interent itself to work with static IP adress (192.168.1.101 for my PC).
However, even though I have tried to forward/open ports for applications like uTorrent and DC++ as well as Limewire, I have no luck. When I test if the ports are indeed opened, I get the result that they are not. Here are how my port forward setting looks like for utorrent. The port in the settings image is of course the same as in uTorrent.
http://www.pictub.com/quickupload/01/untitled-1mb4wd.jpg
I can't seem to open any ports, even though I have followed tutorials like the ones at portforward.com. I have the latest firmware for my router, as I flashed it when I got it. Help .

Yes, I did .
Anyways, look what I found in the uTorrent FAQ:
1.7 Special note for users with Linksys WRT54G/GL/GS routers, there are severe problems with them when running any P2P application
To fix it, they say one has to flash with a unofficial firmware, but I will rather get the money back and buy another router tomorrow. Thanks for the help anyways .

Verizon quantum gateway router and 2 Xbox ones nat type open?

Hello, so Verizon sent me there new router quantum gateway, I have 2 Xbox ones. Upnp is enabled and I have both xbox ones set to static ip. I have one xbox in dmz and the other xbox has all the ports forwarded udp 88, 3074, 53, 500, 3544, 4500, tcp 3074, 53, 80. Both Xbox ones in settings / network show nat type open but in call of duty advanced warfare multiplayer/ xboxlive screen. what ever Xbox one turns on first says nat type open and the other says moderate. Hopefully someone here can help cause I can't find any information anywhere and Verizon technical support has no clue
Thanks in advanced

Hi you need to do two things
Step 1: You have to program the router with port forwarding rules for your xbox one specifically
See instructions here Network Settings on Xbox One - Xbox Support
Step 2: You have to program the router with port forwarding rules for your CoD AW
see instructions here: ports used for Call of Duty games.
if you're not terribly familiar with port forwarding, then there are some good guides online including some youtube video's.
You might not technically find a whole lot on the quantum gateway router specifically, but its identical programming as compared to the Actiontec REV I router
This site has the specific ports that the xbox wants

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!

Which ports you have opened for x-box and ps3..?
Have you done port forwarding or port trigerring..?
Is ps3 and x-box are connected wired or wireless...?
Reduce the MTU sixe to 1364 on the router.Uncheck"Filter Anonymous Internet Requests". Under Wireless tab,click on Advance Wireless Settings tab and Change the Beacon Interval to 75,Fragmentation Threshold to 2304,RTS Threshold to 2304 and Click on Save Settings...

Xbox live nat help

Hello all i need help trying to figure out a nat problem that i am having. I start out with a open nat on xbox live when i run the test but after running the test several times my nat will change from open nat to modrate nat for what reason i do not know but i need help trying to figure out how to fix this problem i am useing a wrt160nv2 router thanks.

NAT issues are quite common in this type of setup. Check out this article from the Xbox forum: Strict or moderate NAT type. You will need to adjust some settings on the router to resolve the NAT error on Xbox Live. Enabling UPnP and port forwarding should do the trick. You can refer to the following article for more information about these workarounds: Resolving NAT type issues with gaming consoles through a Linksys router.
