My 360 has always had it's NAT 'open', ever since I got a wireless adaptor for my other 360 my NAT is now strict. The other 360's was moderate the last time I checked but the chances are it's strict too.

What's going wrong?

Both 360's have static IP addresses.
Mode is Auto 108mbps
I have forwarded both ports 88 and 3074 both outbound and inbound. "Inbound LAN Server IP address" what IP should i put here??

Cheers

I had a guide of how to forward the ports ages ago and I cant remmeber what IP addy it told me to input in the inbound rule.
 
You cant map the same ports to 2 seperate IP's though. Assuming the router is fully uPnP compliant, turn that on and let the 360 sort it.

Right, so what do I do? Leave everything as it is and enable uPnP?

Should I remove the port forwarding or anything else?

Switch on uPNP, undo everything you've already done, let the router sort it all out.

I have the same router, my brother and I both have 360's on the same network, everything works fine.

Even UPnP would not be able to give "open" on both 360s at the same time (When the incoming request comes to the router on say port 3074, how would it know which of the 2 machines to forward to?). Although I have read there is a couple of routers that can handle 2 X 360 (no idea how that works).

Interesting. I stand corrected if you have it working already. Must do some reading to figure out exactly how it is doing it.

I had the DG834G and got that problem often when mates brought their boxes round. I have the GT now, UpNp was supposed to be borked on the G but I dont have two 360's to try it on the GT yet! :p

I flashed my GT to get rid of the crappy Sky BB firmware. I still haven't tested the other 360. Will do tonight..
