[SOLVED] Trying to open NAT on modem/router set up

[Overindulged]

Hi all,

I'm having trouble matchmaking on Xbox Live with my PC. I've read opening my NAT will help with this? I've got a TP-Link VR900 connected to a NETGEAR MK62 that my PC is connected to. I've looked online and I'm having trouble understanding how the port forwarding works with this kind of set up. I've forwarded the ports on the VR900 to the MK62's IP address and then from the MK62 to my PC's static IP address but I'm still on a moderate NAT and the portchecker from portforward.com doesn't register the ports as being open. How can I fix this and get my NAT to be open? Any assistance in resolving this issue would be greatly appreciated. Thank you

u dont want your NAT to be open
that netgear is just middle man right? disable firewall on it if its enabled
on tp link open port(s) for you PC local ip adress
thats all

You have a double nat situation due to the multiple routers. Fix that and your issue will solve itself.

I was thinking this too. You have a double NAT. Make sure you have DHCP turned on only one of your routers. If your PC is set to static, then make sure the gateway is of your main router connected to the modem.
