RAX45 Double NAT with 2 X boxes hardwired - Optyx fiber
Hello all, We just switched from Spectrum to Optyx 2gig fiber. Now we are always seeing Double NAT making multiplayer games lag significantly. Here is our setup: Our Fiber provider setup...
- Apr 20, 2024I have Optyx fiber as well and have the same issue but I’m using there modem/router (EERO Pro 6E). Called them the other day and they said that are having problems with double NAT and that you can buy a Public IP address for an additional $10 a month.

If your seeing strict NAT with the xbox connected directly to the ONT with out the router. Something to ask the ISP about. Ask them about any upstream CGN devices on there side or if there could be anything on there side blocking the consoles from getting OPEN NAT.
Ask about any IPv6 configurations as well. If they have native IPv6 or not. Something on there side is not fully letting the a console get OPEN NAT.

My broadband company is Optyx, which has basically no customer service setup in the US yet...
What do you think about me running my router in "Access Point" mode.... Any chance that will work? Or is this a bad idea?
