Trying to change NAT type to open from strict

I'm trying to change my NAT type on my PS3 from strict to open. My router is a WRT120N and I'm using cable internet. Please help me, and sort of dumb it down so I can understand what you're saying. Thanks a ton!!

i think strict NAT type is a double-NAT setup. it would really depend on your modem. what's the brand and model of your modem? does it have routing capabilities? what IP address does it give off?

(PS3)Changing NAT TYPE to Open for router WRT150N

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.
Gaming consoles such as Xbox 360®, PlayStation®3, and Wii™ often encounter NAT related issues resulting to poor gaming experience. This problem is resolved by checking the settings on your router which contribute to NAT issues.
This is due to the built-in firewall of the router and to get past this, you will need to open ports on the router. You may do this by either doing Port Forwarding or Port Triggering. Once the ports are successfully opened, the NAT Type issue will change to Open or Moderate thus, making the gaming console work.

How do you change the NAT Type to Open?

Hey everyone, I bought the apple AirPort Extreme Base Station (The tall one) and I've bought the xbox one. So I tried joining a party and it didn't work so I checked my nat type and it showed strict how do I make it open ?

You must manually port forward all the ports required because the AEBS does not conform to upnp standard used by MS.
See Tesserax documents for port opening.
https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-3415
Just look up what ports the game requires.
This is the min required for xbox live to work.
Xbox Live requires the following ports to be open:
Port 88 (UDP)
Port 3074 (UDP and TCP)
Port 53 (UDP and TCP)
Port 80 (TCP)
Port 500 (UDP)
UDP Port 3544 (UDP)
UDP Port 4500 (UDP)

About time apple realise since they don't make consoles anyway it is time to actually help people who do.

How to change nat type 3 to nat type 2 for Plastation 4?

how to change nat type 3 to nat type 2 for adaptation 4? i am havng a complicated time with this im'm just trying to play online and been at it fotr 3 days i have tried about everuyhing n portforwarding.com i have a Cisco Linksys E1000

Hi ceasar14. I actually found some steps (from a source) that worked for me. I'm not sure if it will work for you. Here are the steps:
1. Get the MAC address of your PS3. To find your MAC address simply go to
Settings > System Settings > System Information
2. Assign a static IP address on your PS3.
3. Access your router's user interface to open a few ports.
4. Under Applications and Gaming > Port Range Forwarding, open the following ports:
TCP: 80, 443, 5223
UDP: 3478, 3479, 3658
5. Once this is done, powercycle your PS3 and the router.
6. Run a connection test and check if it is now on NAT2.
Good luck.

Need help opening NAT type to OPEN on a model WRT54GS router for xbox 360

I have tried from other people's advice and when i test Xbox Live i always get a Moderate NAT type. I am becoming frustrated with how it is not working and I am hoping someone can help me. Please leave advice/suggestions and thank you for your time.

Open the setup page of the router using 192.168.1.1 by putting the password as admin with username as blank & click the Administration tab & on the same page you will see UPNP.You need to select it as disable in order to help opening NAT type to OPEN.

I am trying to change the name in my "from" box

I am trying to change the name in my "from" box. My name has changed and although I have changed the name on the account, I can't figure out how to make the default name in my "from" box change from my previous name to my new name.

You may need to know that (in Snow Leopard at least) you specify multiple possible "From" email addresses as a list separated by commas. Just type them into that little Email Address box*: they'll move over to make room. Then, on your new messages from that point on, a pop-up menu will appear for the From field. Neat, eh?
*-- Notice that you can lie in this box. Your ISP might not let you get away with it, but spammers use this loophole.

Can't change the type of media from Home videos to TV Shows.

My aim is to organize videos into folders, so I followed the well known workaround to change the type of videos to 'TV Show' and group them by name of the 'show'. After changing the type, videos are moved to 'TV Shows', but when I try to play them on iPad, the player shows up for a fraction of second and closes (the "downloading" icon appears, of course running endlessly, since the files are mine, not downloaded). After that, when I try to play the video in iTunes, the exclamation mark appears, and the only thing I can do with the video is delete it...
I have, in fact, succeeded in this conversion with one of the files, but only once. After deleting it and trying once again, the same problem appeared. Is this a software bug, or a new feature in iOS 8.1 and the only thing I can do to get my videos organized is rely on third party apps?

OK, the problem is solved. I've beed uploading the videos directly to iPad ("On My Device" section) and then trying to change the type to TV Show, while I should first import them into iTunes library, then change the type, and finally sync.

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.

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.

Tried to change "Welcome" so when opens gives site name , valid info, instead of simply 'Welcome." Site can not be found once I change "Welcome" to other name...

Tried to change "Welcome" so when you type in webpage "millerstalemusic.com" and it opens main search page, you see the site, but it says "Welcome" the search page. I want it to have site name, valid info, instead of simply "Welcome."
Site can not be found once I change "Welcome" to another name...
Changed name from "Welcome" to another name. Google wants "Welcome" or can't find my site. I do not want "Welcome" to be the first thing seen on search page when searching with my website name for my site. Why can't Google find me? Changed name back, and worked, but #@!*?!!,
What to do? Yes, I "Double Clicked" and all that, but internet is insisting "Welcome" remains...
How does Google recognize my site? I was told it can take 2 months or longer for Google to discover I don't want to have
"Welcome" as my main Keyword!
Help!

hi,
I saw your website the page is named just welcome and it appears as welcome on google search.
The title of your webpage just needs to be changed and nothing else.A Title of your web page is what appears on google findings and it is the title that appears on the top most bar of browser window. On the top most bar of browser is written apple - support. and this is what will appear on google findings. 'Apple - support'
If you know HTML, just change the title.
I dont know but I think Google takes about less than 2 days to find your site thruugh its robots maybe even faster. My site appeared as i checked it - after two days and i didnt go and list it in addyoururl.

PS3 - Changing NAT Type

Hi all,
I have a PS3 and it's not allowing me to connect to certain people or even use the communication feature on it. So currently I have Frontier internet with a Gigaset modem, a WRT160Nv3 Linksys router. Currently my NAT type is 3 and I hope to change it to 1 if possible, 2 would be okay as well.
Thanks for your time.

Well here is my Internet IP Address: 192.168.254.1
I'm not sure what to do with that.
Also after looking at the site you gave me, I'm still confused at what to do. This is an e-mail that I got from Sony.
Thank you for contacting Sony Computer Entertainment America (SCEA) about changing your NAT type. Below are the TCP and UDP (firewall) port numbers you will need to connect online with PlayStation® products.
IMPORTANT:
Make sure to enable these TCP/UDP ports in BOTH directions and are entered into the TCP and UDP port fields in your router / modem. Contact your Internet Service Provider or router manufacturer for proper instructions on how to input port information for your network.
SCEA Game Servers
All games published by SCEA (first-party) may use the following ports for communication with SCEA (first-party) game servers:
TCP Ports: 80, 443, 5223, and 10070 - 10080
UDP Ports: 3478, 3479, 3658, and 10070
PlayStation®Network
TCP Ports: 80, 443, 5223
UDP Ports: 3478, 3479, 3658
Please let me know if you have any further questions or concerns.
Regards,
Jason F.
And I don't know what to do with those ports or where to enter them.

Need help changing NAT type (3 -- 2)

Dear,
I'm new to this forum so forgive me if this is misplaced
Before I bought my router the NAT type was 2 which was fine. Using this router it's NAT type 3 which makes online matchmaking difficult (PS3).
I would like to change it to NAT type 2 but I don't have any experience with ports and changing settings in a router. So if anyone of you could help me out that would be great!
Router:
Model number: WRT120N
Version: 1.0
Model name: Wireless-N Home router
Thanks

Try upgrading the firmware of the router first. for instructions, try this
Then, do the port forwarding of port triggering. These links might help you with it:
