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...
From your description in the first post, it seems like you are still suffering from a double NAT. If you have another router in front of the RAX200 that is not a transparent bridge such as a fiber ONT, then the RAX200 needs to be set to AP mode as the easiest way to avoiding a double NAT. A static IP will have no impact on a double NAT.
UPnP also does not help when on a double NAT, and port forwarding on the second router does not help much either.
No double nat type... I have a static ip. My isp helped me from start to finish so I can gurantee it as my isp uses a router which was causing double nat type. no other router just the one. Verified with xboxes no double nat type…which before static ip had double nat type… also can get open on one device with port forwarding. this is known problem with this device. Which I had come to realize after the 20 something post on here not a big deal as I found a few work arounds to get it off at least strict. Upnp is just crap on this model which is fine. Netgear support knows it and says that can’t fix the problem oh well.
