How to get open nat type on my Xbox one x with NETGEAR nighthawk pro xr500
To start I have xfinity as my internet provider when I have it connected to my Xbox one x with an Ethernet I can see that under the Xbox settings it says open nat type and when I play a game for examp...
The xfinity modem model is TG1682G, also want to make sure if the cabling is from xfinity modem > NETGEAR router > Xbox, all connected using Ethernet if that’s how it goes.
Thank you, okay so it is a gateway which means you should do the WAN IP into DMZ suggestion I made above and you should get an open NAT then.
- My wan ip is 10.0.0.182 on my internet status on the DUMA OS dashboard from the NETGEAR And I put that wan ip 10.0.0182 in the DMZ page on my xfinity router. It came up as double nat detected and nat type strict on my Xbox.
- Reboot both the Xbox and XR500 and it should work.
- I rebooted both the XR500 router and Xbox twice and still shows double nat detected and set as strict.
