I presume you need this for Xbox Live?

if so you need to go onto your router and configure port forwarding for these ports:

  • TCP 80
  • UDP 88
  • UDP 3074
  • TCP 3074
  • UDP 53
  • TCP 53

  • this procedure will vary slightly for each router manufacturer but will usually have a port forwarding section and boxes for the port numbers and a drop down or radio button to specify either TCP or UDP

    NAT IS STRICT

    STEPS TO CHANGE NAT SETTINGS TO "OPEN":

    1- Using your Browser, Log on to your router (by normally typing in the 192.168.1.1 address check your router's manual to see what the default gateway address)

    2- If you already know how to log in to your router, then skip this step. If you have never logged on to your router then more than likely you still have the default initial log in credentials (username: admin - Password:1234 ..... Again check your router's manual to be sure). The minute you log in you need to change that password immediately, most network-savvy folks know that 90% of the people out there never reset their router's initial password and they can log on and make any changes to suit their needs, including locking you out of your own router.

    3- Once you are logged in, you should be able to find two advance settings (One if for NAT - and the other is for Upnp)

    4- Let's start with the NAT setting changes, and we will move on the Upnp at the end. I have personally tried the NAT setting changes and it didn't fix anything, I still had a "Strict" NAT setting on my xbox360, Only when I checked for the Upnp "allow authorized incoming traffic" options when the NAT settings on my XBOX finally came back as "Open" and not "Strict". But I will still explain what I did anyways with the NAT table cause I know it may work for some other routers.

    5- So what I did with the NAT setting is this. I located the NAT advanced setting on my router, I click on the NAT (Edit List setting) or whichever link/button you have on your router advanced NAT settings to access the table needed to open certain ports (TCP and UDP - 88 & 3074) .

    6- You will need to find out what the static/dynamic (preferably Static) IP address you xbox360 has. To do so, go to the Dashboard, go to the Console settings page, and click on the network settings to see the IP address (should be something like 192.168.1.x). You will need that IP address to enter into your NAT table on your router.

    7- Once you got your XBOX's IP address enter it in the NAT Port Forwarding table (From - To - IP address: those are the 3 fields you should have on the table if you are using SUA NAT)

    8 - In the first line enter 88 under both "From" and To" fields, then enter the IP address of the xbox in the field where you are to enter an IP address. (this is for UDP port)

    9 - Repeat the same step for port TCP (which is 3074)

    10- If these changes do not help open your NAT settings, then try the Upnp option. Click on your Upnp Advances settings and click on the "Allow Traffic" option, this is mostly secure because you are only accepting the incoming traffic that matches your outgoing traffic.

    Where are nat settings

    Hi Friend,

    As per your query regarding the NAt setings, please follow the steps:

    1. Open the router page
    2. Once the page is open, click "LAN IP Setup" which is in the left pane under "Advanced".
    3. Check the box "Use Router as DHCP server" and define the Starting and Ending IP Address.

    This way you will be able to configure the NAT settings of your router.

    I hope this will resolve the issue.

    Regards

    I need to change my nat type from strict to open

    This router does not have the typical "strict or open" NAT types. Looking at the manual, it looks like what you want is NAT enabled and SUA only enabled.

    http://www.zyxel.com/web/support_download_list.php?indexflag=20040906173729&ModelIndexflags=0,420041221102511,420041221102520,420050117110858,420050117110916,420050117110934,420050831093216,420050831095441,420060420160946,420060420161739,420060816160116,420080815092146,420090427144843

    Page 133 has the details.

    Log into router
    go to the NAT tab
    Enable NAT
    Enable SUA only
    Apply the change.
