What now ? Does the button under the GeoFilter say 'enable' (meaning it is disabled)? Have you got UPnP enabled? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phx Posted May 7, 2015 Author Share Posted May 7, 2015 yeah it says enable ! in settings upnp is ticked and enabled. thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Netduma Staff Netduma Crossy Posted May 7, 2015 Netduma Staff Share Posted May 7, 2015 So to check, you have UPnP forwarding ticked in Settings >> Miscellaneous and you have enabled ticked in Settings >> UPnP? Sorry for going over it but it doesn't make any sense to have a closed NAT if you have set up DMZ correctly. Could you also disable the network firewall on your PC and see if you then have an open NAT? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

phx Posted May 10, 2015 Author Share Posted May 10, 2015 Hi folks, Pretty much gave up on this now... not posted anything since Thursday as feel like i was spending more time on a forum than i actually got to game.. Latest developments... upnp enabled, dmz set,on Friday night i turned off my firewall on windows with set up as described and hey presto i eventually got a open nat playing cod a/w.. yee ha..done it i thought,, Sat afternoon went to play, back to a moderate..pulling my hair out with this..i am also running norton so disabled windows/norton firewalls and still get a moderate.. really peeded off now as i can not get a game with my cousin as i can not connect to him on moderate... so unplugged the netduma altogether and put it back in the box set up my sky router with windows/norton both running and guess what ? turned on cod a/w open nat straight away...WTF !! Back on this morning same set up.. open nat again..what do you need to do to guess this dam thing to work/give you an open nat ?? honestly feel like its the biggest waste of £150.00 i have ever spent.. i appeciate some people are singing the praises of this but from my xp there are no plus sided whatsover.. regards Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is obviously something that isn't right as many other users are on Sky and don't have this issue. If you want to get this sorted then come into chat and I will help you. The plus sides must be apparent? Host filtering, congestion control, device prioritisation. Even without an open NAT these still work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What game were you playing, AW? Remember that although some users have reported that this does work with eh GeoFilter, it is not officially supported by the Netduma router.

Zennon Posted May 10, 2015 Share Posted May 10, 2015 Could you make a post asking fellow sky broadband users how they have theirs set up that might be a good way of finding out quicker edit : you had posted while i was typing Crossy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zennon Posted May 10, 2015 Share Posted May 10, 2015 As a side note mine used to do this with a Billion 7800n in the dmz a lot , so i took the duma out of the 7800n dmz and ticked Enable upnp forwarding in the dumas misc settings and rebooted both routers the billion first waited until fully up then booted the duma. I have never had this issue since. Wall > Billion > Netduma > Devices. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Netduma Iain Posted May 10, 2015 Administrators Share Posted May 10, 2015 I understand that you're frustrated but the reason the Nat is not open is because the sky router is not forwarding packets to the duma so it's an issue with the sky router. The only way it's an issue with the duma is if it's geo-filter but you ruled that out already as you have it disabled. Just to confirm it's disabled when the button says "enable" Assuming the above is correct and you have NAT open one day and not the next then it's most likely that the duma is changing it's IP for some unknown reason or the sky router is not saving it's settings. The former is more likely so I suggest you go to the sky route and give the duma a static IP then DMZ that IP. Save settings and you'll have open Nat forever. This should not be necessary unless you're turning on and off one of the routers often. Typically they stay on for months without reboot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
