Moderate NAT Type

Mr. Manager

Right folks,

My settings have gone from Open => Moderate and it's taking an age to get into a game!

Could somebody please help me figure out how to get it back to Open. I've been onto Xbox support and Eircom an neither one can help.

I'm not very computer savvy so any and all advice would be greatfully appreciated!

I changed my Firewall settings to Low on the Eircom Web Configuration page and when I into the port codes that Xbox gave me on PortChecker and got nothing. Granted, I could have been putting the codes in wrong or something...

P.S - My computing terminology is not the may west so please keep things as simple as possible

Thanks again!

modern warfare 2?

open http://192.168.1.254 Go to Expert Mode >> Configure >> Advanced >> NAT

COD: MW2 requires ports from 28960 to 29000 to be forwarded alongside whatever ports xbox.com says.

Ok, I've found the page I'm looking for. Now, what kind of information do I need to put into it...

You will need the IP address of your xbox 360, if you go to your network on your PC - your 360 should be visible, right click, properties and find the IP.

I know my PS3 is 192.168.0.3 - should be along those lines, add the IP to server IP address in the pic above, click add. It should redirect you to another page and let you put in the ports you need to open.

I'm just assuming, that gateway is different to the netopia one I was using a while back

Judging by the interface it's a ZyXEL modem.

In the drop down box it gives me a list:

WWW
HTTPS
FTP
E-Mail (SMTP)
E-Mail (POP3)
Telnet
NetMeeting
PPTP
IPSec
VOIP (SIP)
TFTP
Real-Audio
User Define

Could you please tell me which one I'm to pick...

Thanks!

I just put in the following:

User Name = eircom
Password = broadband1
Service Name = eircom

It disconnected me from Xbox Live straight away and would not let me connect again until I cleared my PPoE settings

Mr. Manager

YUS!! NAT Type = Open

There is another way go to your router page click on nat there should be list of games look for xbox live and enable it .The ppoe setting should had work im using ps3 & xbox live through ppoe setting and have nat1 on both. Turn off firewall on your router your pc be save with it own firewall on.
