Issues with new RAXE300 playing Destiny 2 on ps5s
I am having an extremely hard time getting my family working on this new router, we played this game all the time on our old routers and never really had too many issues. Something is absolutely brok...

None of this did anything, Port forward is not an option with 3 consoles either

Need to set NAT Filter on the router to OPEN if you have more than 1 game console connected to the router.
If you do have more then one game console that's all playing same game, you need to switch NAT filter to OPEN. It's the only way to get open NAT across all game consoles on NG routers. For some reason games when there are two or more consoles playing same game, can't use same ports so combined with uPnP and NAT Filter set to OPEN, allows the consoles to connect and get open NAT or in case of Sony, NAT type 2 which will all you'll ever see on PS consoles.
I've done a lot of research and testing back in 2010-2017 on game consoles, NAT types and NAT Kinds. Found that NAT filter to OPEN with a modem only unit and host router allows OPEN NAT for two or more games consoles.
Since you only have a CM1000, I would not use the Multi gig port for the internet connection to the CM1000 since the max rate the CM1000 can handle is 1000Mpbs. There is no reason to use the MG port unless you have something to connect to it that can support it. Connect the modem using the yellow internet port in back. Connect the PS console using the 1000Mpbs LAN ports in back as well.

I appreciate your replay but, This was something I tried, and this makes more sense in the context of the actual game itself once we start playing together that is when the p2p starts, the issue in this ticket is actually logging into the game. In my prior routers and also my current old router which I have plugged into this new model solely for the purpose of this game, I never switched off secured NAT so your statement is not entirely true, I have seen 3 or 4 nat errors over the 5 years playing this game so could pop up at times.
