Okay, so I called comcast and asked them about my bill to get a better rate and they upgraded me to a 400 Mbps package for cheaper and sent me a new router which only supplies 2 Ethernet outlets. My problem is I have 2 Desktops, plus 2 xbox one's I want to hardwire. So I purchased a TP-LINK TL-SG108 Ethernet switch(unmanaged). My only problem is on the new router with the 'switch' I receive Moderate NAT type with 0% packet loss. If i plug in my old router from them (with 4 Ethernet ports built in) and still use the Switch I get all NAT type OPEN but i still have 1% packet loss which sucks. UP\DL speeds are similar and latency are lower than the new one.
Should I request one of the 4 newer capable Ethernet\Router (to eliminate the packet loss) (If available ) or use the 'new' router they sent me and sacrifice the NAT type or upgrade?
Could I have possibly opened the ports for xbox in the past on the old router (it wont let me access it if i try the standard login\pass since the new upgrade) and forgot to Port Forward on the new Router to make it open NAT ?
OLD model Router: TG1682G
NEW model Router : CGM4140COM
SWITCH: TP-LINK TL-SG108
If any other info is requested please let me know.
Thanks
