My NAT type is 3, i understand this is a problem but how do i fix it cause everytime i play online i lag out and some games i cant even connect with other people. I have the same! I got nat-type 2 but MW3, and other games say its strict. My router happens to run OpenBSD, this was the only guide online I could find that could give me a clue what I was doing wrong. I also learned a bit more about NAT! It works perfectly now! Much thanks to Chris! Best setups to use are seperate modems and routers, where the modem is just a straight pass through, and the router is made within the last few years, where it will support the modern consoles and gaming clients.
On the gateway I previously had, I had loads of issues. Its better to learn about networking, and do the connections yourself, rather than having the craptacular hardware from the ISP.
If they can provide a stable MTU to your house, then you should do fine. Ok Question??? Well for its happenin with resident evil orc too.. However, when I use my Ethernet wire, the Belkin router is not in the mix. The only things it competes with for an ip;. I have NAT type 3.
I have a belkin ndb. Please help! I have problems on playing Black ops. My modem is type 2,moderate. I Got no idea what sm talking about. Message 6 of 7. Message 7 of 7. Top Contributors.
User Count. See All. Discussion stats. Set it to Forward and hit apply. Here is an example from a rather Common Router and its firewall options. As for this example the SPI options blocks all the port forwarding. So this needs to be disabled. Routers differ in their firewall rules and settings.
Make sure to check for any firewall settings in your router to see if anything is set to block incoming connections. I have also found that some home users don't realize they have a firewall installed in the first place. A lot of the antivirus packages out there come with built in firewalls as part of the antivirus. So users think they have antivirus but don't realize it is also a firewall.
So when a warning pops up about a program trying to connect to the net they seem to like to hit block by default, thus breaking things more than helping. I have also helped users who uninstalled their firewall software but it didn't remove properly.
So the firewall drivers where left behind and blocked all incoming connections. So the user had to dig in and get them removed before port forwarding would even work. For a user who doesn't understand how or what a firewall is used for, they should not have one installed if they are behind a router anyways.
Remember a router is a hardware based firewall, it blocks incoming connections except those allowed through by the port forwarding rules.
In cases like this the only real reason to have a software based firewall installed is to block programs from connecting to the net.
Now this is great for us techs who understand and know what will happen if we block a program. But to many times I have had to go to a customers home and fix their system because the firewall had blocked Windows, their email or something important from even getting on the net. The user was told to click block on everything who ever told them that should be slapped lol so since they didn't know what the file or program was for what they ended up pretty much killing their own internet connection.
So you can see my frustration with software firewalls for people who don't know how to use them. With all that being said double check that the firewall you have installed isn't blocking the program or port you need open.
The built in Windows firewall can be a pain as well, but normally does not cause the problems that many user installed software firewalls cause.
But never the less, make sure the windows firewall allows either the port or program through as well. If the windows firewall is corrupted or broken this will keep port forwarding from working as well. I helped a user who was not behind any routers, was connected directly to the modem.
No firewall software of any kind installed, heck he didn't even have a antivirus He had one by the time I was done helping him hehe. While looking into his system trying to find out what was blocking the connections I noticed the Windows firewall service was off. When I went to turn it back on it failed. Digging more into it the WMI was corrupted which kept the Windows firewall from working properly. Once I fixed the WMI problem for him the firewall then started working right.
After that his ports all worked fine. The Windows firewall is tied into the system more than some people realize, and even if disabled it can still cause problems. So making sure the Windows firewall is working right makes a very big difference. Here is an example. So now on the port forwarding page of these types of routers you can set which WAN connection the rule is for.
The problem with this is some times they will have your computer name listed multiple times, and each computer name points to a different IP. So if you choose the wrong one the port forwarding rules won't work. In the Thomson you have to go to the device list and remove the extra entries.
The 2wire doesn't give that option, rebooting the routers may help clear the extra entries. You can check this by login in to your router and looking at it's dhcp or LAN page. Alternatively you can just pick an ip address that is not close to the ip address we found earlier. For instance if your PS3 was using something like If your PS3 was using something like Only the last group of numbers on the ip address should change, and that group of numbers would range from 2 to Please, don't over think this just pick a number and go with it.
I have just tried to provide some guidelines here so you can pick a better number. This is usually required when your network's router is not passing the dns server information to the computers that have static ip address properly. The easiest way to do this is to give your ISP a call. They will probably ask you why you need them. Tell them the truth, your PS3 is requesting them. They should give you two ip addresses, one for the primary dns server and one for the secondary dns server.
The only time you need to setup proxy server settings is when you connect through a proxy server. If you were doing that, you would have been given specific instructions from your isp on how to setup this section. UPNP should be turned off so it doesn't try to use it, instead of your port forwarding configuration.
If it is not then you have made an error in setting up the static ip address for your PS3. Step Your PS3 should save your settings.
