Fluctuating NAT type on Xbox One X with XR1000 router
Picked up the XR1000 (upgrade from XR500) and have multiple Xbox consoles (among other things) connecting to it one directly with ethernet and the others over wifi. Problem is that they all keep fluc...

Did you ever get this fixed? I'm having the same problem with Playstations and 1 Xbox. Which ever one I turn on first will have open Nat. The other 2 is a crap shoot. Can't ever get all 3. I also have a Netgear Nighthawk 7000p that can get 3 playstations and a Xbox all with Nat type Open. About to take back this XR1000.

Sorry to hear that!
Have you been through all the troubleshooting steps in this thread?
Do you have any port forwarding/DMZ enabled? If so could you please detail them.
Please let me know anything else you've tried as well!

Done the same things this guy has. And same setup. Only difference is 2 PS4 pros and a Xbox one X. It's just not possible with the XR 1000 at this time. Got a Netgear Nighthawk 7000P now and it works. Was trying to future proof. The XR1000 just isn't ready for prime time. Thank you for the help. - Netduma-LiamFeb 03, 2021NetDuma Partner
I've responded to you over email, but let's keep the discussion here so other members of the community can input if they like!
Are you getting an Open NAT on the Xbox, moderate on one Playstation and presumably strict on the other?
- D-MEADFeb 03, 2021TutorGetting open Nat type on first console I turn on. Doesn't matter which one it is. Sometimes I can get open also on the Xbox one X. I always turn on Playstations first otherwise they both will be moderate. The second playstation that I turn on will be a crap shoot that it will even let me join game servers. Doesn't matter which one it is. First playstation will be open. Sometimes Xbox x open. Second playstation will be moderate if it lets me in. My internet speeds are 300mbps. Notice in the link I had in my last comment that guy even says you guys know this is a problem on your end. That link was from him saying this on Sunday.
- Netduma-FraserFeb 03, 2021NetDuma PartnerThanks, I think Liam just wanted a bit more information on what you're seeing from your side. NG will take care of it, thank you for all the input.
- D-MEADFeb 03, 2021TutorWith the same internet as the XR1000 is on I can get my Netgear Nighthawk 7000P to get open Nat type on all three systems and even add a third playstation 4 making it 4 systems with open Nat type without any rules being put in. It plays and chat works great on the 7000p. The UPnP works on it.
