I am going through the same thing and youd think their top of the line model would be able to offer such simple requests. I can only get one console at a time to have OPEN NAT every other one will be moderate. I put nat filtering to open, Enabled UPNP same issues. I port forward but obviously only one device at a time can use the ports so thats no help. I really am going to give up on their products and just pay my ISP $5/month for their router. A buddy of mine has spectrum and three consoles all Open NAT and he didnt have to configure anything. Netgear support is trash.

It seems the upnp is broke or some kinda of software issue. My problem is my provider uses same company for there routers. I just find it funny in this day and age a company can’t provide support for there products. If this was say cyberpunk gaming community be up in arms. Just sucks as when you look up reviews most seem bias in a good light but those youtubers are full of crap. So tired gaming with the kid mic cuts or echoes just so tired of paying good money for bad results.

Critical reports when paired with comments are not honoured by Netgear: "Some of our teams don't like to work with you." Majority of these youtubers are very superficial - they don't care much about details and real-world usability.
