Hello

My setup is currently asus RT-66r to netduma to ps4/xbox.  I disconnected my netduma and updated my asus router.  After that I connected the netduma back. I noticed that my NAT type was moderate while playing CoD AW (ps4).  When I connect to the asus i get an open nat but when I connect to the Netduma I get moderate.  I have tried restarting both routers and the ps4 but the NAT is staying Moderate. attached is my Internet Diagnosis.

Thank you

I had a strict Nat last night on xbox one again. Not exactly sure why. I actually had to disconnect my netduma to get into party chat with friends.:( Seems to be more common lately for some reason.

Have you checked to make sure the correct address for the Netduma is in the DMZ? :)

I have personally. I actually changed the mac address last week and had to change it but it's back again.

Can you guys both disable your geo-filter and see if the NAT is open after doing so please

If it is open after that what do I need to do then?

Yes, you can see the address to but in the DMZ by going to the Netduma device manager and looking at what the WAN address is. This is the number that should be in the DMZ of the Asus :)

oh okay, the reason why i asked is because the asus gave the netduma it's own ip address.

Yes, it will do :) The WAN IP in the device manager is just showing you what that IP is incase your router does't have a section that displays all the devices. The number in WAN IP In device manager is the number that should be in the DMZ. You might also want to give the Netduma a static IP (from the Asus) so that you don't keep have to keep updating the IP in the DMZ.

I enabled UPnP forwarding and removed the netduma from the dmz and it worked.  hopefully no more issues.  

 

Thats brilliant! Hopefully it stays like that!

I'm really not sure why but they are both open nat again. I'm just going to have to roll with it until it happens again.

If the geo-filter is disabled its almost certainly not an issue with the router I'm afraid, as it won't be filtering anything. Unless you have put a bunch of hosts in your deny list?

Only 3. When I unhook the duma and hook up my nighthawk I can get right into party chat for some reason.

If it reports your NAT is open & the geo-filter is disabled then it behaves like a standard router in terms of filtering hosts.

 

I guess next time it happens zoom out of you geo-filter map and look for a:

  • new hazard triangle appearing
  • new padlock appearing
  • red cross appearing

If nothing new appears then its definitely not filtering and it must be that the DMZ is indeed not working on the other router for some reason. Lets cross that bridge when come to it there is a simple solution.

Once I dmz my netgear should that blue box disappear? It's always still been there but the proper numbers are entered.

No the blue box never goes its just an info icon mate

Just hooked it back up and there are padlocks that didn't appear before.

 

My mac address changed on its own. I just saw that. From xxxxxxxxxx.7 to xxxxxxxxx.3. Maybe that's it?

Ok so that means the geo-filter is on. Those padlocks are normal, its a bit odd they are inside the circle. But that could just be anti-cheat.

 

Pay attention for a NEW one when party chat doesn't let you connect cranium :)
