Set up 2 Xbox on Netopia 2247NWG - Open NAT Needed

banchang · 2010-05-21 17:47:28

I have 2 Xboxes, & in order to play them over Xbox live properly (find games etc) the NAT needs to be on (which it is), & set to open (which it is not). NAT is 'strict' on the Netopia 2247NWG & I am looking to find out how to switch this to open on this router. Help gratefully received.

Is that the Eircom BB router?

The only way I've ever got this to work is to a) follow the instructions on portforward.com and b) set the router security to "low". I've tried everything else I've seen online.

The latest firmware has settings in the router menu for playing Xbox etc. but you still have to set the security to "low".
