You need to setup both your xboxes with a static IP address for example
192.168.1.50 xbox 1 192.168.1.51 xbox 2
on your linksys router you will need to setup port forwards for both xboxes

Click the Applications & Gaming link near the top of the page.

You should now see a new menu. In this new menu, click Port Range Forward.

requires you to forward the following ports: 53,80,88,1863,3074

    Port forwarding is only good for one Xbox. The UpNp on Linksys routers doesn't work very well. You could try port triggering, but in my own experience, it doesn't work. The only other alternative is 3rd party firmware like DD-WRT..

Haveing problems with moderate nat type need help changing it to open

Open up the Browser interface to your Linksys (http://192.168.1.1/ if you left it as default), and go to your Security section. On the Filter tab, check the box beside "Filter NAT Redirect" and "Save" at the bottom.
If you have an Xbox and you keep the settings as automatic in the network area, you should have an open NAT.

How do i change my NAT connection from moderate to open

This one is simple. Find the IP address that your Xbox is assigned by your router, then put it into the DMZ. This also goes for PS3 users who are having trouble with internet access.

Change NAT to open

You need to open all the ports for the xbox live. The NAT of that router model cannot be configured to open. Its just a simple NAT for internet connection.
