    I cannot change my Strict NAT type on my PC


    I'm using 2 routers.

    First one is technicolor 2015 from my ISP. Because of their low range for WIFI i'm using aTenda W303R router.
    Now to make clear how is my PC connected, well it's wired, and the NET cable for internet from my PC goes to theTenda router, then from Tenda router another NET cable to the first routerTechnicolor in order to connect them both so the Tenda can have internet in order to give Wifi, and internet to my PC.

    I'VE TRIED PORT FORWARDING AND NONE OF THAT WORKED.


    I'm quoting some words from an user that helps, but i would like other opinions so you can confirm is it true or give me opinions to solve this issue.

    "


    Do you have a public or private IP address?

    1.Sign in to your router settings.

    2.Access either the status page or WAN settings page.

    3.Verify or record the WAN or Internet IP address.

    4.On your computer, go to the What Is My IP Address site or the IPmarker site to verify your public IP address.

    5.Compare this IP address to the one that you recorded from your router in step 3.

    If the IP addresses match, then your router is being assigned a public IP address andopen NAT should bepossible. If the IP addresses do not match, then your ISP is supplying you with a private IP address andopen NAT will not be possible under the current configuration. "


    So i checked and my IP's were totally different from each other.


    WAN Connection type of the Technicolor router is DHCP

  2. nat type

    Hi,

    If your NAT type shows Moderate, this is a good state. However, you may still have issues communicating or playing with other people who have Moderate or Strict NAT settings. To open your NAT settings, you may follow the steps
    under Open network ports using port forwarding on this
    link
    .

    Keep us updated with the results after performing the suggested solutions above.

    • Desktop is connected to internet through LAN cable from an ASUS router RT-AC87U
    • Able to receive party invites, able to join friend invited game

    2. Laptop

    • On the XBOX app on Windows 10 PC shows NAT type: "Strict"
    • Desktop is connected to internet through ASUS router RT-AC87U wireless network
    • Not able to receive party invites, or game invite from Desktop.

    I cannot change my Strict NAT type on my PC

    Problems with MW2: Nat type Strict?

    I am suprised no one else has suggested this but take a lot here, indepth guides for both port forwarding and setting a static I.P Address

    How to Setup a Static IP Address in XP, Vista, Windows 7, and Game Consoles - Setting up a Static I.P DO NOT SKIP

    Setup a port forward in your router to allow incoming connections for multiplayer games, VOIP, DVR, and security cameras. Then go to here, select your router, then the game and it'll tell you how to open the ports which will stop the strict NAT.
