What version of FW are you using on the XR500?

Press the Power button on the xbox until it shuts off. This will clear out any networking caches. Then power ON and check NAT status.


If you only have one xbox then set NAT FIlter to secure. Open is only needed for two or more game consoles.

Any suggestions on what I can do to change this?

I have two Xbox ones with open Nat and Nat is set to secure. From what my understanding is if you play CoD then you have to have Nat set to open. It's the only game that needs it.
