NAT Settings and Minecraft issues

So I just recently purcahed a C7000v2 and I have been having connection issues to multiple games due to NAT issues, or Port Forwarding issues. I have attempeted several ways of getting around the NAT settings on this router, but I am unable to disable the settings. Everytime I try to connect, for example, to a minecraft realm. The C7000v2 thinks its getting a DoS attack and disconnects me seconds after joining.

 

Is there anyway around these NAT settings, or did I just waste money on this router?

    See if there a feature called NAT Filter. If you see this, maybe under Advanced/WAN setup, set this for OPEN. Save this setting and apply. Reboot the modem and your gaming device. See if this changes anything.
