R7000 - Strict to Open NAT for PS4
I'm New so I may make several errors in the post, however I want to know if I turn my ISP modem/Router combo to Modem mode only (has that option in settings) will I be able to change my Nat type from Strict to Open on my Ps4 and Ps3 when gaming online?
Hi RiveraChristian,
It is the reason why the NAT type is strict since you have to routers in the network. Set the modem to modem only.
Once done setting the modem to modem only, set the NAT filtering to open under WAN setup of the R7000.
