Ok so my NAT decided to change to Moderate and I don't know how to change it back to Open. Here is what I tried. I set up a static IP. I tried port forwarding and that failed to change anything(I went 88 and 3074). I only forwarded those two ports but there was room for a few more... I'm not sure if I was suppose to put anything in there... I made sure my UPnP was enabled. Also my DMZ and I made sure it had the same IP as my manually set IP address on my 360. I have now run out of ideas. Can anyone help me out? I have a linksys WRT54G wireless router, btw.

I can but I have a moderate NAT and it's something I don't want. I want it open.

I often go to movie forums asking for tech help. Although I find them to be less knowledgeable on tech related problems they are a little more eloquent in their explanations.

your internet connection type should be automatic configuration, not static IP

Thank you. It's finally open. I tried this a minute ago but I forgot to set my 360 back to automatic instead of manual. Thanks again man. I hate making those small mistakes.

Lock it up mods.

if u set ur connection on ur 360 to automatic, ur nat isnt truely open, even if it says so, to set ur 360 IP to static u have to use manual and fill in all the data necessary.....but im guessing open like that is better than moderate, im just letting u know just in case u cant connect to other people`s matches
