Rax200 gaming help
So I recently bought a rax200 to hook up four gaming consoles. I have fiber to the house from my isp. I have also gotten a static ip which got rid of double nat type. Consoles lan in. And have reserve...
Has this issue been resolved?
I am looking at buying the RAX200 but I have 3 Xbox's in my home and want to know that I will have no issues getting an open NAT on all consoles.
I currently have the R7000 and have not had any issues gaming with an open NAT on all 3 consoles all the time. If the RAX200 is unable to do this then I definitely would have to look at a different device to upgrade to.
Any help would be appreciated.
Unfortunately it hasn’t been resolved and probably won’t be. Netgear doesn’t seem to care that this is a constant issue with their products. The R7000 seems to be the only router we’ve seen that can actually get open NAT for multiple consoles in one household so if that’s what you’re looking for stay with the R7000. The issue comes from IP Addresses only able to use one port at a time and until we’re merged to IPv6 we’ll continue to deal with NAT issues.
