Set up nat OPEN XR 1000 PS5
Hi, I was wondering if there is a user guide or video on how to set up nat open with the xr1000 and ps5. I havent been able to figure this out or find an guide.
The best NAT type you can get for any Sony game console is Type 2. Type 1 is the console connected to a modem or ONT unit with out a router built in. Type 2 is modem/ONT unit connected to a external wifi router. OPEN NAT is not a Sony nomenclature. Type 1 and 2 and others are. Open NAT is a Microsoft and Xbox console nonmenclature.
- Thank you. Yes nat 1 connection is what I want to achieve on ps5 with xr1000
- As above, NAT Type 1 and NAT Type 2 are Open. NAT Type 1 is ONLY possible when connecting through a modem. NAT Type 2 is the same as one except when you're connected through a router.
You have an Open NAT.- So as of right now I've got my modem in bridging mode. If I connect it directly to my PS5 I have a naton connection.
Are you saying that there's no way to achieve and not one connection through the router?
