WRT54GL - two Xbox - moderate NAT... sometimes

Modem: RCA DHG525
Router: WRT54GL
ISP: Cogeco (Ontario, Canada)

I have two Xbox connected to my router (cable).  The two Xbox have a unique static IP.  Xbox1 is in the demilitarized zone.  Xbox2 has 53, 80 and 3074 returned for TCP and UDP ports.  Anonymous block WAN requests is disabled.  MTU is set to auto.  uPnP is disabled.

I just ran the connection on xbox2 test and got an open NAT.  I left xbox2 but disconnected from live.  I went xbox1 and run the connection test and received a moderate NAT.

I turned off the two xboxs and revived the tests in connection with a single on both xbox.  Xbox1 both xbox2 moderate NAT report.

After having the two Xbox turned off for awhile I ran the connection on xbox2 again test and nat is open.  I turned off xbox2 and run the connection on xbox1 test and again the nat is moderate.

Once again, I left the two Xbox turned off for a while and has run the connection test, first on the xbox1.  The nat is moderate.  I turned off xbox1 and ran the test on xbox2 and nat is open.  I have run the test on xbox1 before and had received an open nat.

Is it a timing thing?  Is this something released if Xbox's together off the power long enough?

Is it possible that I can get the two Xbox to have an open nat consistantly?  I need not have both online at the same time.  I would just have a nat open, if I play on the xbox1 xbox2.

Thank you

Read this. Also, you can not assign same IP for both the X - Box.

    Thank you!

    You have a few options.

    1. use the bridge instead of router

    2. Requests Comcast to allow you to use a residential modem instead of the SMC.

    3. use the DMZ to set the router on the gateway firewall.

    4. my personal favorite, ask ComcastLarry to set the bridge mode bridge for you so that the E2000 works as the router. For this option, look at the 37th post

  • WRT54GL and Xbox Live

    Hey there everyone.  Lately I had problems with my WRT54GL and Xbox Live.  When I try to connect to Xbox Live, it fails.  When I do a network test to check what the problem is, it says that I'm connected to the Internet, but I can't connect to Xbox Live.  I have opened the appropriate ports on my router and have even tried to put the Xbox 360 on the DMZ.  No solution helped.  I also tried to disable the firewall router SPI and its SecureEasySetup.  Still no luck.

    I powercycled my all network equipment and called my ISP (Time Warner Cable). My ISP says that the problem is not on their end.  I plugged the 360 Wireless at first, but also tried plugging it directly into the router.  Xbox always gives me the same error. The only thing I can not try connect the 360 directly to the cable modem.  When I got my service installed in my new apartment, I forgot get address MAC connected to Time Warner Cable of 360.  Normally, this is a problem since the router's MAC is the only one that matters. However, this also means that I can't connect directly to the modem to see if it is really a router problem.

    If anyone knows a place or how to get it to work, I'd be very happy.  I know that the WRT54GL is not certified with the little "Xbox Live Compatible" stamp, if I need to get a new router is not totally out of the question.  I wanted just to eliminate any possible problems that might arise before that.

    Connect the router directly on your computer with an Ethernet cable, then download this to your desktop.

    Open your browser and type "192.168.1.1" with the URL of the box, the two username and password should be "admin" unless amended.

    Now, navigate to the administration tab and find the update of the firmware, and then install the file that you put on your desktop.

    You now need to reset the router, press and hold the reset for 30 seconds button and unplug the power cable for 1 minute.

    Log in to the router DHCP enable/change, 20 Mhz, SSID, channel 11 - band Radio 2.46Gh, then work on getting your security put in place again.

    Go into the settings advanced wireless
    Change the tag to 75 interval, modify the threshold of fragmentation to 2304, change the RTS threshold to 2304, now save the settings.

  • E1000 2.1 and the xbox live NAT problem (I read all the others)

    So like everyone, im having troublewith xbox live and NAT, but I feel my situation of dns is unique, so my solution is perhaps just as well. Help, please

    Modem-> Router (e1000)-> port 1 (wired): xbox, wireless: mac computer

    Configuration: Auto DHCP

    MTU: tried 1365 and 1452, currently on 1452

    UPnP: off

    NAT: on

    Port Range Forwarding - (tried reccomendations cisco and xbox, tried the verses of individual ports this range, currently at)

    (looked in the outbreak, but as I have 2 devices, if I let a range of open ports, I want that it does match the xbox)

    Application: xbox

    Start port: 53

    End port: 3074

    Protocol: the two

    IP address: 192.168.1.20

    Xbox is set to:

    IP: 192.168.1.20

    Subnet mask: 255.255.255.0

    Gateway: 192.168.1.1

    DNS: automatic

    reading only 1 dns (see notes)

    Notes:

    router port range is 100-149, so DHCP should not be a problem (I guess) if ip xbox is put out of reach ([192.168.1.20] being 20)

    In my status tab in the router, it gives me only a dns. When I look at online modem, it gives 2 different DNS.

    Each time, I have everything works a turn at a time, the computer always connects, Xbox Live still connects, but he still has the problem of nat.

    I don't think it's a matter of double nat, bc when I look at the stats of my modem there is nowhere to configure ports (seems to be the modem only 1 Ethernet only)

    Also, I noticed that the mtu of my modem is 1500 (I changed the mtu on the router, but not the mtu of my modem [it only allows me to change the mtu of my modem])

    Help, please. I've been dealing with it and try different combinations of ports and options for 4-5 hours now. I'm starting to crack: S :).

    Well, I found my own solution.  I looked at all options as what could be easier for the components to deal with.  Here's what worked:

    Computer:

    Configuration: Auto DHCP

    MTU: 1452

    UPnP: on

    NAT: on

    DMZ:

    Source: 192.168.1.100 to 100

    Destination: 192.168.1.1

    Xbox:

    I could leave it on auto dhcp mac address book bc but it looks like this:

    IP:192.168.1.100

    Subnet mask: 255.255.255.0

    Gateway: 192.168.1.1

    DNS: automatic

    Combined with a DHCP reservation [via the mac address (for the safety of the DMZ)] all of it worked.  With a DMZ, I didn't have to worry about which ports where correct.  It was just messy because I was 2 devices of connection and could not choose a single static ip address. So, the example ip ending (20) was not default range of the router of 50 numbers. Pay attention to your range of ip addresses in the router settings.

    * Make sure that your DMZ is on only a single or a partition of ip addresses, and you have other DHCP reservations for these ip addresses * you can find the mac address for xbox by accessing the network > configure network > additional settings > click Advanced settings, and not choose a 'different address', you should see a below *.

  • Xbox 360 NAT issues?

    My XBOX 360 Live connection was working fine a few days ago.  Now, I can't join parties or cats.  I was told that this is a NAT problem.  No one knows how to fix?  I have a WRT54G.

    Who is your Internet service provider... ?

    Try to reduce the MTU to 1365 and click on the 'Administration' tab and disable the UPnP option and click on save settings... Now, check the connection.

    If this does not resolve the problem then try to update firmware of the router.

  • NETGEAR AC1900 R7000 several Xbox those open NAT Type

    Hi all

    What is the best solution for those multiple Xbox on the same network. I have two Xbox.

    My question - get an open NAT Type on both those of Xbox. Both systems have a NAT open but not for multiplayer games. More specifically, black ops 3. I have UPnP turned on, but my black ops 3 nat type is moderate. When you look at the list of UPnP, I see a port for Xbox Live service in the list as 3074, but black ops 3 requires the port UDP 3075. At the same time, 3075 UDP has been registered for one of my Xbox and now it is no longer the case. So, what I have to do is setup port forwarding and add only my IP address of the Xbox as a personalized service with the port UDP 3075 and it works. That's fine and all, but my IP address for my Xbox (both) will not change from time to time. I thought UPnP would take care of this for me.

    How should I handle this so that both those Xbox use the port UDP 3075 and I don't have to worry any change my IP? Or need to be updated for my router to Negear as Black Ops is no longer using port 3074 Xbox Live?

    I'm on the last update of the firmware as of today (November 9, 2015) of V1.0.4.30_1.1.67. Yet once, I thought active UPnP would solve my problems with Xbox runing both on the same network.

    Your ideas/suggestions are appreciated! Thank you for your time and help in advance!

    p.s. I want to summarize... I have a NAT open for two small Xbox (if I go to the Xbox a settings/network settings tab), but I'll get one Xbox, one with an open NAT and the other with a NAT moderate when you play multiplayer on black ops 3. Treyarch said they use is no longer the same port as Xbox Live, now they use port 3075.

    Hope this makes sense... Please let me know if you need more information or have any questions.

    You can keep changing IP addresses using the address book. Log in to the R7000. Go in ADVANCED > Setup > LAN Setup. Inside will be the address reservation section. Add two entries to your Xbox.

  • NAT on XBOX 360 with WRT150N problems

    Hey guys,.

    For some reason, we had some problems with our NAT type for our xbox. We have a good (green) connection, but the NAT type always appears as "moderate." Right now, we use the (configured for the xbox) standard wireless card to connect to our router (WRT150N).

    I tried power cycling, manually enter the IP address, mask and gateway, but nothing has worked... any suggestions?

    Generally a moderate NAT problem is due to two devices on a network running NAT.  Your router is probably related to the ISP device providing NAT service.  East - similar to the configuration of your network?

    To remedy this, you can put your modem in Bridge mode device, which will require a little research according to the make and model.

    An easier way to get around this problem is to configure your network so that your router runs only as a switch.  You will need to attach the modem to the router's LAN port and keep the unused WAN port and turn off DHCP on the router.

    If you have already taken steps to eliminate any other NAT device, you can view more details about your ISP, networking and other components and maybe get a little more help.

  • WRT160N - V3 Xbox NAT strict issue

    Xbox 360 NAT issues resolved! (WRT160N v3).

    I followed the instructions in the link above, but also at least 20 other posts, but I always get strict NAT with a unique XBOX.  I think I tried all combinations and I can't understand why my situation is somewhat different.

    Question - when I go to the STATUS, under the 'Internet connection', "IP address" tab, I see 192.168.1.64 (internal address).  I read somewhere that in other words, there is an another NAT also beyond my router. What is the problem?

    This problem started when I replaced my (default) combination modem/DSL router by an old 2Wire-Homeportal-1000 s, with a brand new Motorola model 2210-02-1022 (modem only) of the AT & T store and combined with a WRT160N V3.

    I tried all combinations of UPnP enabled, redirection port, serial port triggering and DMZ range.  I used a DHCP reservation to affect my Xbox a static IP address and checked that works very well.  But even in the DMZ with UPnP off, I get strict NAT.

    I think I have to empty the Motorola + 160N and buy the current combo modem/router 2Wire AT & T, but I do not do that when I don't know for sure there will be more.

    Others seem to have great success get this cleared up.  Can someone shed light on why none of these techniques work for me?

    Thank you

    I want to thank you because after endless hours trying to remove the XBOX 360 strict NAT son - your advice finally put me on the right track.

    With my particular combination: AT & T DSL, modem Motorola + WRT160N-3 - Bridge mode did not work.  As soon as I put the modem in Bridge mode, the light of the Internet on the front does not to come.  Maybe, if I called AT & T I could find a way around it.  This setting seems to affect the PPOe connection to the router instead of the modem, but some PPOe setting I use (including by providing the user ID and password, etc.) brings me an Internet connection.

    What worked was in the modem settings.  There was no obvious parameter to enable/disable NAT, instead, it reads: "Let device LAN share Internet address?   Choice: "No, use the private IP address", "Yes, use the public IP address.  This is the power switch modem NAT and it must be set to Yes (default is NOT which is what created the 2nd NAT).

    Even in non bridged mode, with the removed modem NAT, the NAT router and other work now setting.  I could put the Xbox successfully in in the demilitarized zone.  The idea is, in the STATE of the router tab, you see now a public IP address instead of the internal address of the modem.

    WOW that was difficult and time consuming to get to this point!

  • Linksys E3000 NAT open Xbox Live settings

    Hi all

    I recently upgraded my the WRT160n V3 to the E3000 router. I had the port to the front of my old 160n to get my game Xbox Live NAT settings to OPEN.  When I switched on the router for the new E3000, my Xbox Live settings are returned to the Medium (medium). I assumed that this would have happened since this is a new installation/router.

    Can someone help me configure my E3000 and Xbox Live so I can have my open NAT settings?  I only need to configure the Xbox 1. Any help is greatly appreciated. Thank you!!!

    The previous is large enough and generally useless for the configuration of the E3000 to facilitate capacity NAT open xbox live connections. 1 make sure you have a static IP assignment for the xbox an assignment of dhcp for the mac address of the xbox in creating or statically assigning an ip address to the xbox outside the dhcp scope, you set but on the same network / subnet of course. then go to the tab under applications and games and the prior port 3074, single port forwarding, both internal and external, to the IP address of your xbox. Name the rule openNAT or something that you will recognize. put a cheeck in the box to enable the rule and click on save settings to activate. Your xbox should now work without complaint about the need for open NAT xbox live test and gameplay should work just fine.
