    uPnP works fine on the XR router. 

    For Sony consoles you'll never see NAT1. NAT 2 is always seen with a ISP Modem/Router configuration. To get NAT 1 you would have to connect the console directly to the ISP modem/ONT

     

    What Firmware version is currently loaded?
    What is the Mfr and model# of the Internet Service Providers modem/ONT the NG router is connected too?
    Be sure your using a good quality LAN cable between the modem and router. CAT6 is recommended.

    Good advice above.

     

    Are you using Geo-filter? If so, could you please disable filtering mode as a test and see if your NAT type in game goes to open?
