Xbox nat types and replacement router.

I currently have infinity broadband which in itself is working great. The problem is that I have 2 Xbox 360 consoles in the house which both are refusing to have open nat types ( they are moderate) when we had 1 in they house that showed nat open. I have googled this and it seems that the hh3 just can't cope with 2 consoles as you can only port forward to one of the consoles on the router settings.
Does anyone have a solution for the hh3 problem or know what routers may help me. I don't really know too much about it and before googling it knew nothing about the jargon above!! Thanks.

This may help.

uPnP should be able to handle multiple consoles without resorting to manual port forwarding, but giving each console a separate static IP address on your LAN, will  help.
You cannot manually forward the same ports, to more than one device, on any router.

  • Port Forwarding to change xbox nat type

    I have wasted the last 2 hours of my life, trying to figure this out. Ill try to make it short, but bear with me.
    xbox nat type is strict. Im fed up with this. Xbox is connected wirelessly to apple base station.
    Ive heard you cant get the NAT type to open, but that you can get it to moderate, and thats what im trying to do.
    I have successfully given my xbox a static ip address, and then I have gone in and opened up ports to that ip address. A guide i was following said this would work. It made it worse, now i get kicked out randomly, which didnt happen before.
    Can ANYBODY give me or find me a step by step guide on how to get my xbox nat type from strict to moderate using leopard and an apple base station.

    It is probably your modem that is doubling your NAT. I would set the modem to Bridge mode. That way only the router handles network address translation.

  • Restored and replaced router, same private IP's

    My devices received the same private IP's after restoring the router to factory settings.
    I replaced the router later in the day and they still had them same IP's.
    Doesn't the DHCP table clear out upon restoring?
    Also,  how can I make my addresses start at 100 my devices are in the .41, .43, 45 range?
    Or will it loop around.

    Have you factory reset the router and before you reset the router, turn OFF all devices while you set off the reset on the router? 
    Be sure that your not using Static IPs and using Automatic Obtain IP addressing on the devices. 

  • RTC (CMOS-BIOS) Battery Types and Replacement Help

    hi,
    my notebook: hp g3050ea 
    i'm trying to replace my RTC battery. Today i bought a CR2032 Lithium Battery. But after that i noticed my computer's RTC battery is little different. İt is Mitsubishi CR2030E
    i'm not sure if  it is the right part for my pc. Can I use any CR2032 battery or should I use CR2030E ?
    i bought this battery
     Mitsubishi CR2030E

    I think that you may use it. The "E" on the old battery could be "enhanced" and the size is the same as I noticed. The main issue should be the size and the voltage. Both are the same..

  • NAT Type 2 but still strict in MW3 - Help please!!

    So here's my dilemma. I've been searching for 2 days now how to get an open NAT type in Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3. 
    I've got a BT HomeHub 2. Simply connecting wirelessly to the network grants me a NAT Type 2, which I understand is supposed to be moderate, and therefore open to a certain extent ... But in-game is says that I have a Strict NAT type and won't let me connect to friends' parties. 
    I've forwarded all sorts of ports as instructed to do so by various online blogs, that didn't work, neither did portforwarding's website. 
    I've tried using a static ip and enabling DMZ on the hub, but that wouldn't even allow my PS3 to connect to the router
    I've even tried using PPPoE, entering some random's email and password into the boxes as I saw on youtube. 
    BT's solution is a load of rubbish ... "Try resetting the modem and select static ip in the HH settings". 
    Has anyone else come across this problem of NAT type 2 being strict on MW3, and have you managed to overcome it??
    I'm not a total gimp when it comes to fiddling with computer settings but I can't work this one out. 
    Thanks

    Exact same problem here,
    Was the above successful and has it remained open?
    I was able to quick fix my Nat type by simply loading the multiplayer on cod4 which must open up the required ports but even that is more complicated with the game not loading now at all unless you disable your router (another kettle of fish).
    The strict Nat doesn't seem to be as bad lag wise so that's something the developers have fixed with the last MW3 update, however the lack of ability to connect to your friends with a million dollar multiplayer such as MW3 is quite frankly unacceptable and completely defeats the object of such games.
    I've tried forwarding ports and all the other methods to no avail, I've yet to try MW2 too see if that will quick fix the problem.
    But please let us know if your forwarded ports are still working with an open nat, and if you can join / hear friends.
    Thanks in advance,
    Otherwise I'm going to try some other routers as I have plenty of friends with different set ups playing fine with open Nat, that being said there are just as many with different providers and routers suffering the same dilemma, this is certainly not just a home hub issue although if I get another router to work I will certainly enjoy throwing the hh out the window... 

  • 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.

  • 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

  • Cisco Linksys EA6500 Smart Wi-Fi Router AC1750 (STRICT NAT TYPE XBOX 360)

    Hi All,
            I have 2 kids. Each with his/her own xbox. One Xbox gets an open NAT Type OPEN and the 2nd Xbox gets a STRICT NAT type. I had the same issue with the other Cisco router I had, but thought an upgrade might fix the problem. Plugged up new router last night, same dang issue. Why can't 2 Xbox gaming systems have an open NAT type at once with these routers? Anyone have any suggestions, I am all ears.
    Ready to try another router (Netgear, D-Link)
    Thanks

    If I am not mistaken, theoritically one router is only applicable with one xbox. The reason for that is because you need to use or open ports on your router and you can only use one port for one ip address. What you can try though is to leave the working xbox the way it was setup and then set DMZ on your router using either the 2nd xbox's ip address or mac address.

    Linksys E3200 High-Performance Simultaneous Dual-Band Wireless-N Router
    the nat type for xbox 360 and ps3, what is it when you set the router up out of the box? are the nat types open moderate or strict

    Hi there. It actually depends if the gaming consoles ports are not blocked by your ISP. Moderate NAT type limits your connection playing online games, Strict does not allow you any connection at all while Open allows you to play with everyone online. Have you had a router before with Open NAT on the gaming consoles? Try to check without the router by going directly to the modem and see if your NAT type is open or strict or moderate. If ever modem is fine and it is the router not working right you can port forward ports on the router. I found these usual ports online, for XBOX live:TCP and UDP ports:  80-88, 3074-3074, 4267-4269. For PS380, 443, 3478, 3479, 3480, 5223, 8080 and UDP: 3478, 3479.

  • Should I get a new router to get open NAT type?

    Whenever I play COD Black ops 2 on my xbox 360 my NAT type is strict. I have a centurylink 660 series modem and that is working to its full potential of the bundle we bought from them. I also have an airport extreme (2009). I Know theres all these port forwarding stuff, but whenever I try to do that, my whole network crashes and I have to factory default all of my stuff. So would getting a new router help me? also, I have my airport extreme in bridge mode because It said I have a double NAT and DCHP. So what would be the best solution for getting an open NAT type for Call of Duty on Xbox 360? I also have a MacBook pro (2009).

    Yes, that is what I am doing.  I don't know the setup details for what you want to do, but I am running a MacBook Pro (late 2008), iPad, and a couple of iPhones on wifi through my Airport Extreme base station.  I also run backups to a Time Capsule. 
    The base station is set up to "Create a wireless network" and runs in "DHCP and NAT" mode.  The Time Capsule and two Airport Expresses are set up to "Join a wireless network".  My cable modem (Ubee DVW3201b) runs in bridge mode, connected by cable to the WAN port on the base station.  I have the wifi capability of the modem disabled.  It took me some trial and error to get the cable modem set up properly, but there is a lot of information out on the net.
