WRT600N Open NAT Problem

I have a wrt600n router with the current firmware on this site which is 1.01.36 build 3. I use this router mainly for playing Xbox 360 games online and everytime I reset the router the NAT is open for about 24 hours then it goes back to being either moderate or strict NAT. I already tried forwarding ports 88 and 3074 on the router for my Xbox 360 and then changed the MTU size to 1364 but the NAT still only stays open for about 24 hours then it goes back to moderate or strict which I really do not want to happen. I have been having this problem with this router ever since I have had it which has been about 8 months now and I also have the same problem with my Playstation 3, and yes it does have the most current firmware. Ant help would be greatly appreciated.

Open an Internet Explorer browser page.In the address bar type - 192.168.1.1
Leave username blank & in password use admin in lower case...
On the set-up tab change the MTU Size to 1452 and click Save Settings...Click on Security and uncheck Filter Anonymous Internet requests...
Click on "Applications and Gaming" tab and then click on "Port Range Triggering" subtab...
1) On the first line in Application box type in ABC, in the Triggered Range : start box type in 53 and End box type in 10080, in the Forwarded Range : start box type in 53 and End box type in 10080 and check the enable box, click Save Settings...
2) Turn off your modem, router, X-Box and PlayStation...Wait for a minute...
3) Plug the modem power first, wait for another minute and plug the router power cable, wait another minute and turn on the X-Box, PlayStation and test it...
Upgrade/Falsh the Firmware if nothing works...

Open NAT problems with Xbox One .

When I first got my 1900ac I used Media Priortization to get an open NAT for Call of Duty Advanced Warfare on my Xbox One ; prioritizing the Xbox . It worked fine for about 6 months until I changed cable/net provider to Nextech in Ks. This company uses the 1900ac to hook up it's system for all it's customers ( since I already had one they're using mine ). Unfortunately I'm unable to get an open NAT in this game anymore ; I've tried just about everything , NAT forwarding , triggering , Media Prioritization . Nextech support & Xbox Live support , useless . Tried Portforward . com , nothing . Forwarding port 53 cuts off net connection & doing the static ip change for Xbox didn't help . Almost everything I've looked at seems out of date & I'm at my wits end . It would seem by now Linksys should have solutions available , any ideas ?

Thank you chin_pamz13 for your response . I tried to check if my modem had a public or private ip address but I'm not sure how to do that ; I've read about double NAT's elsewhere . Regardless , I think I've finally found a solution that seems to be working so far . I went to the website " tech - recipes . com " & found an article , " Xbox One open NAT " by Aaron St. Clair . I tried his first suggestion about port triggering , with extra ports I had'nt seen before . That did not work for me so I followed his instructions for putting the Xbox in the DMZ & it's working ! I think my problems from before were the result of improperly setting up the static ip address for my router & Xbox . Previous instructions had me changing the ip in the console along with the router ; Aaron said not to do so in the Xbox , let the router do the work it's supposed to do & make sure the settings in the console are on automatic . In the router at the DMZ , I was'nt sure how to proceed , but at the bottom is a section labeled DHCP reservations list ; clicked on that , saw XboxOne , clicked on that & it filled out the MAC address above for me . Then I went to the Xbox network settings , advanced settings & clicked " automatic " at ip address , subnet & DNS . I checked mutiplayer connections & did the " hold bumper & trigger buttons " trick & finally got an open NAT ; fired up CoD Advanced Warfare & got the open NAT there also . I may have screwed up when I did the port triggering but since the DMZ fix seems to work I'm going to leave things alone . Hope this helps others with open NAT problems .

Linksys E2000 (2 Xbox 360's and 1 PS3) Open Nat Problem

Hi everyone,
I recently bought the Linksys E2000 for my house so i could enjoy wireless internet. The problem is i have two Xbox 360s which one is wired and the other wireless. It seems that i can't have both Xboxs with OPEN NAT and whichever one connects to the router first is the one to have OPEN NAT no matter what. This leaves the other Xbox with MODERATE or STRICT. Is there a way to have both open at the same time? If anybody knows help would be appreciated! Thanks
**I have a PS3 also connected wirelessly, but that one is always OPEN. Didn't know if that would affect my PS3's NAT if i were to change the setting on my router.

Here's a checklist. Got it here.

2 PS3's connection problems/ How do I get open Nat on 2 PS3s.

I am having problems with the connection on my ps3's. Me and my brother both have seperate ps3's. We play call of duty mw3 together. When we are both online and playing we have problems. We both are in the same party and we try to join games but we can never join any. When we are both online, One of the ps3's has an Open NAT and the other ps3 has a moderate NAT or a strict NAT. When only one of us is playing everything is fine.
I want to know how can I make both of them have Open NATs and how can I fix this problem I have. I have an extra router as well. Any help would be great. Thanks!

WRT1900AC Problem With open NAT with multiple Xbox One's

I am starting a new thread for some possible help with this. I have just recently replaced my r7000 with the wrt1900ac router and for the life of me cannot get my 2 xbox ones in the house to have open nat. Only one of them will show open NAT. Anyone get this to work and work 100% of the time? I have reseverved the IP's. I tried port forwarding.. I tried putting one in the dmz. I have tried port triggering. None of it works. One will be open the other stays at moderate. I have got it in strict before as well. I have upnp on. I cannot figure out what is wrong with it. Ideas? Also It seems my router reboot on its own and turning the LED's off after a reboot the wireless led's come on. Seems like a bug.

Hewligun, found this on another Linksys thread, it appears that Linkysy may need to update their UPnP and all should be good. Original thread:Packet Dropping thread Excerpt from thread: Re: WRT1900AC packet dropping[ New ] Options ‎05-01-2014 06:16 PM I did some research. Microsoft documents that port forwarding will only work for the one xBox in the forwarding rule. In the same document it mentions that the only way to have two xBoxes running at the same location behind a router is with UPnP. The UPnP protocol has be the newest version in order for it to work. I guess the WRT1900AC is running a later version of UPnP in which case a firmware upgrade will solve this. Keep in mind that Microsoft xBox Live itself is having documented issues as well so we can't really know for sure if the UPnP on the WRT1900 is the newer version or not at this point.

Can't get 2 XBOX 360's to open NAT on new E1000

I'm at my wits end and about to take this back. I had a Linksys WRT54GS that worked PERFECTLY with 2 360's, but even after using my old settings, using portforward.com's settings, and trying something I saw someone recommend here for someone having the same problem with an e3000, I simply cannot get both of them to open NAT. Can someone help?

I'm having the same problem also. I have both Xboxs on static IPs and I put one on port forwarding and the other on DMZ but it doesn't seem to make any differences. It's getting me frustrated because I've tried everything and it seems to work sometimes so I backup the configurations, but the next day it goes back to strict.
I use to have a WRT54G v8 and it would work flawlessly, but this new E1000 model is giving me many problems.

Linksys e2000 router Open NAT troubleshooting multiple xbox 360's

Hello,
I've been searching for about 4 hours now how to fix my NAT problems. I thought it had it working on one xbox in my bedroom, as it said OPEN NAT. But, when I looked at my Xbox in the living room, it said MODERATE NAT. How can I get these both to say OPEN NAT? Any help is appreciated. Thank you!

If you're attempting to game with multiple 360s, port triggering would be your best option.
You might succeed in getting open NAT on both but the issue would be if you'd be able to play the same game on both consoles simultaenously. Since both consoles will use the same Internet port, the game packets will only be sent to one local IP address. Some games support this and some don't so if you're unable to get open NAT on both game consoles, call your ISP and request for another IP address. That should solve everything.

WRT54G how to get a open NAT?

I have a WRT54G and it is not even possible to get a true open NAT with it for the xbox 360. I have tried port forwarding, DMZ, UPnP and just about everything else but nothign works. I can't seem to find a match of Call of Duty 4 online at all with the modem hooked up but as soon as i run it straight from the modem i find a match in like 3 seconds. Right now my 360 says open NAt but is not because i can't talk to friends or find matches so why does it says its open if it's not? Is there anyway or is this modem just garbage? I have seen alot of post regarding this problem with the WRT54G so i'm starting to this its a crap router. My router is version 6 by the way. Any help would be great thanks.

Ive opened up so many diffrent ports for it that i can't remember them all and yes i ahve set my MTU to 1365. So any other help maybe if anybody has this router and can get it to work with xbox live or mainly Call of duty 4. Maybe somebody could tell me why it says i have a open NAT when i obviously don't?

How to get a open NAT type with a linksys E2000 on PS#

I called customer service and they were completely clueless, told me I had to pay for the Tech support to fix it. I have a Linksys E2000 and I cannot get a open nat for my PS3, tried the DMZ, and XBox settings but that obviously didnt work. So anybody have any ideas before I return this $100 router???

   TCP 80
   UDP 88
   Both 53, 3074
5 - Security tab
   uncheck Block Anonymous Internet Requests
   disable uPnP?

Azureus Nat problem

Hey
I am running a 17 inch imac and experiencing some trouble with my bittorrent client Azureus.
I simply never get the green smiley face. I read the wipi-help from Azureus and confirmed by using their instructions that I do have a NAT problem. I have no firewall running. I did continue reading the explanation in the Wiki but it seems to be PC oriented. Can anybody give me some good info to fix this problem?
By the way will my downloads be faster when I do use a correctly configured NAT?
Samuel
PS I am not using a router just a ADSL Modem

I had the same problem but turned off my firewall, opened the port 59981, turned my firewall back on & it worked straightaway, my d/l speed shot up frpom 20kb to 280kb. My only problem now is that when I am running azereus my internet connection sometimes drops and the only way round it seems to be turning off my mac & cable modem and rebooting. I'm on Telewest Blueyonder cable with a webstar cable modem and it only happens when I'm using Azereus.
Very frustrating!!

Getting an Open Nat on XBOX One?

Hi all, first post here.
I'm trying to configure my Xbox One so that I have an open nat type as opposed to the moderate one I have now but have abosuletly no idea on how to go about this. I've followed a few guides, but not made any progress. In terms of hardware, i'm running with a BT HH5 Type A on Infinity Option 2. I know for a fact I'm not on Carrier Grade Nat.
So, any ideas? I'm a bit lost really...

The Home Hub 5 has poor UPnP support. Because of this it is not fully compatible with the xbox one.
There are work-arounds you can try
To tell you how to get round the problem I need to know a couple of things
Do you own more than one Xbox One?
Do you also own an xbox 360?
Do you play Call of Duty Ghosts on the xbox one?
There is a workaround to open the NAT but this wont work for call of duty ghosts.
Go to the Network settings in the xbox settings app then run a multiplayer test. When test is finished press and hold both the triggers and the bumper buttons at the same time to go to detailed stats screen.
When on this screen press A then press A again. Hopefully your NAT should now be open. You sometimes have to do this two or three times though to get the NAT open.
Because of the home hub 5's poor UPnP support though there is no way to open the NAT in cod ghosts using UPnP. You need to forward port 3075 to open the NAT in Ghosts.
This is all a total pain and I keep hoping BT will update the firmware with a fix but i not holding my my breath.
It should be said though that NAT doesn't matter for games that use dedicated servers. So for games like Forza or Titanfall you don't need to worry about NAT. It's only games that use p2p that need the NAT open like COD or assassins creed black flag.

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'.

How to open NAT for Linksys E1000 on PS3?

question in title:
it seems as though my gameplay on my ps3 has been very THICK(lag and delay on screen), I have tried changing the MTU and some other options and I already notice the difference but i think I can maximize my lag-free gaming if I completely open up NAT on my PS3.
Does anyone have a great guide that works?
Also would changing the MTU/ Disabling UPnP and unchecking anonymous internet requests effect my Download/Upload speeds or anything else, or does it just help fix gaming lag?
Input towards topic and questions i've mentioned will be greatly appreciated,
Thanks.
Greg

disabling the WMM has something to do with the support you get from the servers and from i was told that's not needed to be enbled it should be disabled, and by the way the linksys support team explained it's better disabled instead of enabled and it wouldn't hurt to get a actual gaming router .. i went with the E3000 and i ended up having to ship it back for some defective that i didnt even cause, i would look into a actual gaming router that supports gaming like the e3000 or the e3200 , it should said for gaming consles or something like that but i will totally look into your problem personally and go from there! intil then i would try to get in contact with playstation gaming system and figure out what ps3 ports are so you can go from there - there should be a way to test the nat type (there 3 nat type's on playstation 3 ) there's nat type 3, there is nat type 2 (which is open) and there is nat type 1 and the one we want is the nat type 2 i believe, which means open nat type (meaning plug and play enabled and open ports on the router )

WRT54G2V1 Need Open NAT for Destiny PS3

I currently have a Linksys WRT54G2V router. My Playstation3 has a wired connection to my router. With my current settings when I play Destiny on my PS3 I have a moderate NAT, and would like an open NAT. My ISP is Charter Communications. I do get a public IP through to my router, and have tried portforwarding. Am i missing anthing? Do i just need a better router?

Internet Service Provider and Modem Configurations
What ISP Service do you have? Cable or DSL?
What ISP Modem Mfr. and model # do you have?
What ISP Modem service link speeds UP and Down do you have?
Check cable between Modem and Router, swap out to be sure. Link>http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CAT6 is recommended.
Check ISP MTU requirements, Cable is usually 1500, DSL is around 1492 down to 1472. Call the ISP and ask.

If the ISP modem has a built in router, it's best to bridge the modem. Having 2 routers on the same line can cause connection problems: Link>http://www.practicallynetworked.com/networking/fixing_double_nat.htm and http://computer.howstuffworks.com/nat.htm If the modem can't be bridged then see if the modem has a DMZ option and input the IP address the router gets from the modem and put that into the modems DMZ.
