Orbi UPNP Portmap Table Blank
Hi
I am having some trouble with my sons PS4 and NAT. It comes up with a message that voice chat will not work due to his NAT settings and I think it might be something to do with UPNP
I'...
What FW is currently loaded?
What is the Mfr and model# of the ISP modem the NG router is connected too?
If you have to game consoles on the same network, do the following. Set up IP address reservations for each console. Save settings and apply and turn OFF the game consoles. Go in and set NAT Filter to OPEN. Save settings and apply. Found under Advaned Tab/Setup/WAN Setup.
I am running firmware V2.2.1.210.
What is the Mfr and model# of the ISP modem the NG router is connected too? BT standard - ECI Telecom Ltd, B-Focus V-2Fub/r rev B.
I've set static IPs for both consoles. Is it not dangerous to have Open NAT? I have my PC, laptops etc on the same network. As much as I love my son playing video games, I don't want to become the victim of internet fraud or getting a virus. Happy to have open nat for both consoles if that helps.
This modem have a built in router? Just checking as if it does, this can cause problems. I believe it's a modem only.
Type 2 what you should see on PS game consoles. It will be the max you will ever see with a router behind a stand alone modem with out a built in router.
Having OPEN for NAT Filter is ok. It works for multi player games and some NAT issues with two or more game consoles behind the same router. You can keep Secure as well. NAT Filter mostly effects mutliplayer games like CoD with two or more game consoles. If you or your son don't play these kinds of games, keep Secure. I play CoD games and have two consoles playing same game at the same time so I use OPEN. No issues.
What browser are you using? Does IE11, FF or Opera browser see this issue.
Please post a picture of what your seeing in the uPnP table for review...
I've tried with edge, firefox and chrome (default). This is my Upnp table. It must be working to show NAT 2 but I still get the NAT warning on his PS4.
