Double NAT issue caused by ISP, with R6100 gateway
On my Xbox One, I’m getting a double NAT error. I’m pretty sure this started after we upgraded our internet. Now, I can’t connect to EA servers in battlefield 1. This doesn’t happen in battlefro...

With my weak psychic powers, I can't identify your "my ISP" or the
equipment to which your R6100 is connected. When having two cascaded
routers is the problem, the usual solution is to make one of them not be
a router. In some cases, the ISP gizmo can be put into a bridge mode.
Alternatively, the R6100 can be configured as a wireless access point.
Visit http://netgear.com/support , put in your model number, and look
for Documentation. Get the User Manual, and look for "Wireless Access
Point" (page 85).
Which of these two solutions is better may depend on which device you
can control, and which router has more/better desirable features.
