Netgear C3700-100NAS UPnP/NAT: Xbox 360 and PC
I havejust downloaded Black Ops 2 on my PC to play with my friends. My brother has an Xbox 360 that he also plays Black Ops 2 on. I saw in the game that the NAT wasnt open so i tried to go on google but when i try to add a Service it says the port is already taken. Same with portforwarding... im almost positive this problem is occuring because i am running the same game on 2 different platforms. I have searched google and the community and have been unable to find a fix for this issue. Thanks!

Hello spcetrall
You can put the xbox in the DMZ which will open all the ports and then you can port forward for the PC this will solve both issues. here is a link on how to do this even though the screen shots show the old smart wizard the options are still the same under LAN and WAN
