Double nat on xbox
Keep getting double nat on my xbox, I switched to just a single modem/router instead of having both and it still keeps giving me a double nat. I've run out of ideas.

Did you hard power OFF the xbox by pressing the front power button and holding it until the xbox shut off? Then reboot the modem router and then turn on the xbox?
- Twilken98May 05, 2020AspirantYes, even fully unplugged both for a min and let the modem/router to fully boot up before plugging in and turning on xbox...I've even tried port-forwarding.

What happens if you hard power OFF the xbox then elave it off.
Factory rest the modem and setup from scratch. Use uPnP only with no port forwarding configurations. After the modem is setup. Power ON the xbox and check netwworking NAT status.
Is this the only xbox game console you have online or is the more then one?
- Twilken98May 05, 2020AspirantThat's actually how I did it straight from the get go hoping the new modem router would resolve the issue but it did not and yes it is the only gaming consol connected and only one of like 2 or 3 devices.
