RBR750 NAT Stict
Hello, I have the AX4200 RBR750 wifi 6 system. Since getting this system 3 months my NAT type has been strict and this will not allow me to connect to play games. I have tried disabling the UPnP...
I have an Xbox One. The firmware version is V4.6.14.3_2.3.12. The modem is a Technicolor CVA4003TCH1 Cable Modem. I tried disabling the UPnP when I did the port forwarding and that didn't fix it so I deleted the port forwarding and turn back on the UPnP.
I believe your modem already has a built in router and wifi which would cause the Orbi system to not work right with uPnP or PF Configurations and your getting strict NAT on the xbox console.
Do you get same NAT status if you connect the console to the ISP modem?
Your ISP Modem already has a built in router and wifi. This would be a double NAT (two router) condition which isn't recommended. https://kb.netgear.com/30186/What-is-Double-NAT

Couple of options,
1. Configure the modem for transparent bridge or modem only mode. Then use the Orbi router in router mode. You'll need to contact the ISP for help and information in regards to the modem being bridged correctly.
2. If you can't bridge the modem, disable ALL wifi radios on the modem, configure the modems DMZ/ExposedHost or IP Pass-Through for the IP address the Orbi router gets from the modem. Then you can use the Orbi router in Router mode.
3. Or disable all wifi radios on the modem and connect the Orbi router to the modem, configure AP mode on the Orbi router. https://kb.netgear.com/31218/How-do-I-configure-my-Orbi-router-to-act-as-an-access-point and https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H7LOcJ8GdDo&app=desktop
Try option #2 first...
