    Hi Kangadreww_

     

    Welcome to NETGEAR Community!

     

    May we please know the exact error message and the port number you're trying to add? 

    Kindly provide the device SKU (MR2100-xxxxx) and firmware version. 

     

    Regards,

      Hi Bianca,

      I managed to input the ports I wanted to forward, they are for my Xbox. One port being 3074.

      But I do not think the port forwarding works as my Nat type is still moderate, and I get the error upnp unsuccessful, how ever it is turned on!

      It’s being like this for awhile now.

      Thanks for getting back to me

      Firm ware is the most current one. Which added port forwarding. I’m not at my computer a the moment.
