Trying to play Xbox live and it’s saying I have a double NAT and a strict NAT. I only have the nighthawk hot spot. No router. I just need some guidance! Like Ethernet to the hotspot?? Orrr??? Anything helps!!

Not uncommon providers are using NAT, Carrier Grade NAT (CGN), or abusing RFC1918 addresses with CGN for assigning the "pubic" IP address to your mobile/MR1100.

So basically I won’t be able to play video games online?? That’s all I want.

Understood, but nothing the community here can change or enhance on your behalf. Start with challenging your mobile data provider with the keywords from above....

Make sure these settings are enabled,settings - Advanced settings - otherUPnPDLNA

Thank you! I will give it a try when I get home! Any suggestions are awesome.

When doubling up on devices performing NAT, Xbox One can display the "Double NAT detected" error in the console's network settings. This is often caused by multiple routers of gateways between your Xbox and the internet, preventing it from establishing a steady connection for gaming upsers portal
