Strict and Double Nat again.

Ah they did it manually for you - it shouldn't make the game lag no, it will only really affect who you're able to connect to - if you're a solo player then you really won't notice any difference. If you play with friends, as long as they're all on open they can connect to you.

it would be nice if you replied to my topic because it would look like it was invisible or didn't want to be visible I'll help you find it here please.

I mostly play alone. So then everything is ok. I really don't care what it shows there, as long as my hits are registered at a normal level. I don't expect magic, I'm 1400 km away from the nearest server. Thank you for the new firmware and for trying to improve R3

Just one more question. Should I turn off UPnP and remove my PS5 from the DMZ of R3?  I don't care if I have nat type open or not.

You don't need to, you're likely to have more issues if you do so

Double NAT only occurs when you have two routers in play and one isn't passing through all the traffic to the other so it will be something to do with the static IP/DMZ not being valid anymore for some reason, check all that in case any of it has changed

Hi fraser. I sorted this out yesterday again. All settings were as should be by the way. Nothing had changed at all. Come to go on again today. Double nat again. So go in. Check. All same. So i have to do it yet again. Daily. This is insane,

it will be the death of me lol  image.png.254ab1975523e778112a3c1f9bc05de8.png

That's really weird, a double NAT always indicates the modem isn't setup to pass traffic directly through to the router so it will be something on the modem side causing it. Might be worth contacting your ISP about it, they may be able to link up an update on their side with the issue happening for example.

I will try something with their tech team. I know it isnt meant to act like this clearly. Drives me mad lol. I will let you know what i find out.

Hi fraser. Right ive been back and forth with this lol. Had enough. I went to my provider. Cant inform me on 3rd party but dont see why what u said wouldnt work. So i bit the bullet and added on my own static ip with the provider. My ip isnt changing at all. Totally static. Run with the settings u said to have. No matter what i do. The day after it always goes back to double nat and strict. Been nonstop since i purchased this. Wish could send it back lol. I cant run in bridge as for some reason my sonos dont like connecting to the netduma. So what could this be do you think as its costing me money trying to figure it out and paying for own ip.

For the Sonos I suspect it's not liking the automatic band switching for the WiFi so split the bands, connect it to 2.4GHz and assuming that works then run the bridge mode and see if it works better.

What firmware version are you on currently? I know there was an issue with Sonos on earlier firmware's but we did fix it, are you on .236?

Yeah that the firmware. If i was able to somehow get the sonos on. Guessing all my extra nodes wont work around the home then as in bridge mode.

If the ISP modem is in bridge mode it won't affect any devices connected to the R3.

No i mean the nodes are coonected to the linksys. They are basically my linksys router. One is set as main. Others have as boosters around home. I have 3. Heres a link for them. They are connect fibres main router.

So just reboot everything one more time in dmz and the static set to get my open nat again. Then see how goes. Surely i will be back in a day. But i will leave it few days. 
would i even have to set the static ip to duma if i pay for my own anyway.

If you're putting the ISP modem back in router mode then yes you still need to assign the local IP address. With bridge mode that's not applicable.

Wish i could bridge it as know would solve the issues surely. Kinda need my nodes that i have to get signal around the house and down in garden. Wonder if the nighthawk or whatever it is that also does duma/geofiltering would work any better or exactly the same.

In theory both options should work unless there is an issue assigning an address to the router. I'm confident it would be exactly the same as I don't think it's on the R3 side.

So if its on the linksys. I wonder what setting it could be that needs changing. All i know is its a pain.

It should just be assign a static/reserved IP to the R3 and then pop that in the DMZ and you're good to go. You could try assigning the IP outside the DHCP range and then disable DHCP (make sure you give those nodes and any other devices IPs outside the range first) and that way if there is an issue with the DHCP implementation it may stay working.

Provide a screenshot of the DHCP page on the linksys and I can guide you from there
