Gaming on a Hotspot Open NAT Type - How to Open UPnP If you are here, you are wondering how to open the NAT (network address translation) on your Hotspot. Unfortunately, most mobile Hotspots do not have the ability to open the NAT due to software limitations.   Not to worry, we have a sol

I was forced to get a NVG599 router after using 2wire 946 before.  Since  then my slingbox will not work.  Att wants to charge me $15 extra a month in order to open a port so I can use it.  I don't think it is right since before changing modems everthing worked fine.  I also didn't have to rent a mo

1) I've been reading the multiple posts on the forum about multiple xbox's in one house (including somejoe's detailed solution).  Many posts reference NAT and Strict/Moderate/Open.  I've never seen the words Strict/Moderate/Open on the gateway webpage.  Is it a user setting that I can control throug

When I went to install Mycloud storage unit the Ethernet slot on the back of my Pace 5268ac wouldn't light up.  The slot was dead. The Mycloud just blinked mean

How can I fix the UPNP not working on mobile hotspot for ATT?

Hello, all. A few months back I purchased a unlimited data plan with at&t along with a model MR1100 – Nighthawk M1 hotspot in order to game on the Xbox One with it. So, I get on Xbox to find that I have a Strict NAT. I know many here would automatically point me towards a beginners guide

I made some wireshark captures of local network traffic and noticed a significant amount of traffic coming from an ip address I don't recognize. The ip address in question is 192.168.1.1.

I keep getting a message saying UPnP unsuccessful which causes me to lose connection to servers

My NAT type is moderate even though I’m getting 300+ mbps internet speed. Plus it keeps saying upnp is not successful. I’m wired in from my Xbox to the router

So my Xbox is telling me to enable UPnP on my router, and I go to the ATT wireless page to turn on UPnP settings, I click enable and then apply, then it loads and goes back to disabled. Any ideas?Thankshttps://imgur.com/a/cmMAIvr

Hello, I have the At&t unite pro and after setting up Upnp and even trying portforwading and dmz, I'm getting a Strict Nat type from the xbox one and other consoles.  This causes lots of connectivity problems when playing online with friends.  How do I resolve this so that I have an OPEN Nat type?

I tried to enable UPnP on my ZTE MF279 device, but after I click apply and the screen refreshes it's still disabled. Can you not enable UPnP on this device or would there be another reason it will not enable for me?
