RBK753S - Xbox Causes Router to Reboot, Occasional Double NAT
Hello, I recently changed from the Orbi RBK53 to the Orbi RBK753S, and now I am having issues with my Xbox kicking all my devices off wifi and causing my whole system to reboot. I am have no issu...

Yes, both my Xbox are set to "Instant On" and my Switch is also, so I think they are holding the port open once it has been used. But it does look like UPnP is doing it's job and deleting the Port Mapping when another system requests it, it just doesn't delete it when the system Powers Down, so I'm just going to monitor it.
I do have good news as I was able to just play an hour and a half of Breakpoint with the guy that was crashing me, so I am going to mark this thread as solved.
For those looking for help in the future, here is what ended up being my solution:
Upgrading to the latest firmware (V3.2.16.6_1.4.4)
Changing NAT Filter from Secure to Open
This gave all my systems Open NAT and Full Cone NAT.

Ok, then the port will be open of course since it's being accessed by those devices.
Glad it's working now. Glad NG finally got the NAT Filter bug fixed. I can't wait to get my 8 series updated too.
Enjoy. :smileywink:
Yeah, I'm not as familar with UPnP (typically I had it disabled and just went with a Moderate NAT), so I wasn't sure how it is supposed to look in the Port Mapping Table. But all three of my systems are showing Open NAT or Type A NAT, so as long as that is showing and working, I'll be happy.
I've never had any problems with uPnP. Alwasys have left it enabled. It's just a automatic program for doing port fowarding is all. If your adept in manual PFs then one can disable it. It's a lazy mans form of PF. :smileywink:
As long as it's working, I'm comfortable to leave it set and let it do its work. Port Forwarding with Multiple Consoles is a pain especially seeing that everything wants to use Port 3074. Can't wait for IPv6 to be rolled out widely enough to eliminate the need for NAT.
You'll be fine. Enjoy now.
