N600 Dual Band Router NAT type strict on PS4 issues

I have seen a few posts about this but not much resolution. I have the N600 WiFi Dual Band Router. I am able to play sometimes with friends on my PS4, however, cannot communicate in parties via heads...

    Hi n33tzsche,

     

    1. Please make sure you have done DMZ and Port Forwarding separately and not simultaneously.

    2. Some suggested ports to forward are:

    • 80
    • 443
    • 465
    • 983
    • 3478-3480
    • 3658
    • 5223
    • 6000-7000
    • 9293
    • 10070-10080

    3. Also, DMZ is not recommended and is usually done for isolation.

     

    Regards,

When plugged into the wall from complex I get type 2 nat. As opposed to type 3 when connected to the router. Not sure of the firmware.
