i was getting moderate nat type on black ops 3, had been getting moderate on every call of duty game since half way through MW3. i done everything in this video except opening the ports and it has gave me an open nat type now. thanks mate.
Can someone help me? basically i have changed the dmz host to some router number and before i changed it there was nothing in it. i try to delete the numbers and save but it won't let me. someone help me pls
My PS4's NAT Type is 2, but games such as call of duty still had it at moderate. I followed your guide and the website you mentioned within the video and my COD games now all have open NAT. I've powered off/on my PS4 to check if it will revert back to Moderate NAT within the COD games, but it hasn't which is wonderful. Great guide!
Wanted to take the time and say thank you for making this video. I spent 8 hours trying to fix this issue until I came across YOUR video that actually fixed it for me. Thanks for taking the time to make this video!!! 👌
I have Cox in Oklahoma and my nephew can't game it up with his buds from around the country. It's pissing me off so I'm going to try this method tomorrow. I'll try different local static IP's and see if I can't get any of them to work.
The IP address part is what helped me most, thanks man..I had all the ports opened fixed my DMZ and firewall settings but something wasn't going right until I seen this vid.It was my PS4's IP Address I forgot to set it to match my ARRIS modem..Thanks again! FINALLY!! Lol. Damn I had to find a video from 2015 to help me in 2017 ha
i feel so much smarter after watching this video, i had to do things a little differently than you did but i was able to figure it out based on listening to you. thanks!
yes!finaly i got BO4 open nat type super easy only did it in 5min no need for UPDP or whatever that is just follow steps and youll get open nat type and even better connection speed
wow thank you i was using my phones hotspot to play monster hunter and couldnt get connect to a game until i changed the io address and first time i tried after changing it it worked... My MAN!!! thank you
PSN failed when testing or trying to log in. I've simply changed the APN on my device and chosen unrestricted...now PSN won't let me log in. PLEASE HELP
Having two PS4s under the same IP Address is restricted. My brother and I can never seem to play the same game together do you think following your tips on this video would help changing the IP addresses on one of them?
For the people it didn't work for the dmz you have to switch router off then back on and it should work especially wen giving console a new static IP address
Hi, Steve, I heard it's a lot better to set Y router settings, rather than set up Y console. What is most important using some simple programms U can find the best DNS server, and manualy set it on Y router. Am I right?
+bobocpe The idea is to set your console to Static LAN IP lets say 10.0.0.15, then your router has to be told to allow any/ALL ports inbound/outbound. This gives you full Open NAT
I had my PS4 Pro in a DMZ for a while. Since 6.72 PSN firmware update DMZ no longer works for me. I keep getting internet connection failed for wired connection. What do I need to do to fix this error? Wifi works. No internet connection problems on wifi. I had the DMZ working before the above mentioned firmware update. Just on a side note there are two PS4's using a wired connection on the same home network.
DMZ is safe on gaming consoles as they do not have the same security vulnerabilities as other devices do (PC). It won’t affect other devices connected to the router since you’re only opening 1 port to connect to the specific gaming console. Everything else will remain locked 🔒 per your firewall parameters.
Hey I followed the instructions and wrote down all numbers for setup correctly. I don't know hardly anything about this sort of thing.. But i Feel like my numbers weren't correct for the subnet and gateway when I viewed status connection. But I followed instructions regardless. Tested connection, finally got my IP address to connect, but Internet connection fails immediately. First time trying a Lan cable since my wifi wouldn't let me have Internet connection even while connected. Can somebody please help me? I've spent nearly 3 hours exhausting every option to connect to Internet for my ps4
Hi,i juz bought a ps4...downloaded 1free game but when i open it keep on stated that "disconnected with game server,please log in again"...i log in again and again but still unable to play the game...may i know wats happening and how to solve this problem?
I have done the same thing as u have mentioned which means I have a manual IP and DMZ is open but still I am getting a moderate Nat type.. My net type is 2. My Router is Tenda N301 Help me if possible.. Ty
I've been having this problem for months already.. And oddly, it persists with all my other devices as well. I can't play TF2 on my PC without there being a constant connection problem, renders pretty much every multiplayer game on PS4 unplayable, AND corrupts some of live video chatting as well. I've port forwarded, enabled DMZ, upnp is on.. Even connected my router to the PS4 via ethernet. I have no clue on what to do now. :(
hey I have a ps3 and a ps4 at home but we can't log in to the PSN simultaneously as one of the playstation gets kicked out the network, what should i do ? thank you
is there a way to open ports on a mobile hot-spot. there's no internet where I'm at and the hot-spot works good but is stuck on type 3 so I can't use party features
i have a ubee cable modem that lets my nat type on my ps4 be 2 but wont let other ps4 on my wifi have 2. if i portforward his system it gives him nat 2 but turns mine to 3. any tips on fixing it.
I can't find the ps4 link on the port forwarding page... just got nbn in Melbourne through telstra, is my modem incapable of this procedure? Cheers dude.
I did this, followed it to the letter, and my connection to my router just disappeared. Took me forever to get it back up, and I still have a strict NAT type. I'm done with this port forwarding BS. It never ever ever works.
good vid got my ps4 info in but not every one can spend money to buy the portforwarding program you are using so i am stuck still got strict nat type so you helped half way and ty =)
Hi, I still am showing NAT type 3 but a guy in a comment below said that may stay however I may have access after following your instructions and that I should just try to get in a game. I tried it and I DO have access. Thanks!
Hello Thank you very much for the video but i could use some help my router is linksys x3500 and i want to change nat type for 2 ps4's also if you use same ports for range forwarding for ps4 read on linksys site that i should use port range triggering problem is on triggering page it's says triggered range and forwarded range and i have no idea how to do it and dmz only allows me to enter one IP address. Any help plz sry for long msg
Every time I try to play with a certain friend he gets booted from the party and we cannot play together no matter what we do, will opening the ports help to let us play
Hi man.. How are you ? Look, I have Nat type 2 but when I open my Call Of Duty advanced Warfare (ps4) I have the nat strict.. How can I solve this problem ? Help my please
Your nat type may still be open. Go in to a game for example call of duty bo3 and it should say nat type open down the bottom. Nat type 3 is a different thing form strict, moderate and open nat type.
+Ducan “Dementedcrappers” Liamson Hi, I still am showing NAT type 3 after following your instructions and that I should just try to get in a game. I tried it and I DO have access. Thanks!
I did the DMZ Method and when I do the internet connection test my NAT TYPE Failed? What did I do wrong exactly, and I used my default dmz server to the new ip address I chose for my ps4.
I have no fucking clue what any of that was about. I honestly don't know the difference between a modem and router lol but I followed your steps and it worked. so hats off to you sir😊
I've tired so many things I've gave up on making my nat type open, i had it open before when i had TWC modem but i switch to netgear modem, ever since then its been strict I've tired this but still nothing
+TmplKnght The games that test NAT on speed are stupid and incorrect. Open NAT is where firewall ports can be opened to allow your console traffic through router
+Tremayne Whitehead This is a great question. Its almost impossible to get Open NAT on multiple devices simultaneously. The reason is because 2 devices cant have a tunnel from the same port on the router at the same time through the firewall.
I'm having this problem with my computer as well as my ps3 and my xbox. My ISP has removedthe availability of uPnP completely, as well as portforwarding. One option is to use PPPoE. This does not work either though. I can create a PPPoE connection and connect to it with the credentials I was given by my ISP, but my NAT type remains strict. I haven't tried the final solution yet, which is using DMZ host. I have read it is unsafe to use your computer as your DMZ host. Is this true? Is there anything else you can think off that could resolve my issue?
+Aciebel PPPoE is your WAN settings. thats not the correct section. You want to setup a STATIC LAN (private internal network) address for your console. then adjust NAT (port forwarding) to allow it through the firewall.
Steven Graham Thanks for the reply, but as I said, I can't enable port forwarding for those ports. My ISP has disabled the use of ports past a certain range. The only solution there is, is to disable the firewall of the modem, attach a standalone router, and configure it with a firewall of my own.
My ISP had been messing with their setup lately, so I'm kicked out of my psn (it says I have NAT error). Would using NAT type2 help me log back onto psn? I'm not looking to maximize speed or anything. I just want to be able to play games.
+Jorge Gonzalez Usually the rule of thumb would be to use your router(gateway) IP as primary DNS, then use another one like Google 8.8.8.8 as secondary in case your ISPs DNS has a brain fart at any point
I'm trying to do this with 2 ps4s I've enabled it on both with individual IP address When I try add port forwarding rule it shows that it can't overlap the ports. What can I do? Can I use the same IP address for both ps4s?
+Dilraj Bhambra Unfortunately you cant have 2 consoles simulteneously with Open NAT on same network. the reason is both cant have the same port open on your router firewall at the same time
Every time I try to connect I says 1 of 2 things it eould say signal may be too weak or cannot connect within the time limit can you help me with this problem
+Thegamer with an Attitude. This has nothing to do with getting a public IP. your router has a public IP and it has a NAT firewall to protect. thats the point of this video as an instructional guide to open ports etc
Do I need to make it static? Because I was about to click it an it said warning "this will change your network" and i.....will get the Kane if my parents find out
Excuse me but im new to this :( i want to join my friends on PS4 but i cant cause its strict :( Should i buy a netgear routeur? and what i do with it? it give me free wifi ? help me pls
Hey, after I changed my Ip adress and did the connection test, it came out Type 3. Is that normal and should I continue with your steps or did I do I need to change the IP adress higher?
+Bruce Wayne The idea is to set your console to Static LAN IP lets say 10.0.0.15, then your router has to be told to allow any/ALL ports inbound/outbound. This gives you full Open NAT. has nothing to do with your ISP. all configured from your console and router. Please check your NAT type in a game like COD
hey i did everything you said do and my ps4 started freezing up right after and btw my parents put this linksys restriction on my ps4 so that I only play for a set amount of time . Should I open up my ports more or what idk.
+Sam Any way I can get the restriction off without them knowing because after I did what I did it let me connect to the internet but wouldn't let me connect to to psn and so I bumped my port number up higher and then the nat failed

Can someone pls help me? I've done all the steps yet I still do not see Nat type 2
Thanks for the instruction mate, Cheers.
+James Ahern Glad to help
man thx for thge help you dont know how much you hleped me thx for everything man you are a legend
please help os doesn't work and every time i join my friends party the internet stops in every device thats connected to the wifi
If I put a DMZ will my other devices not get internet just my ps4?
All other devices will work fine. DMZ just means that your PS4 will be outside your internet's firewall and all ports will be open.
Hey, after I changed my Ip adress and did the connection test, it came out Type 3. Is that normal and should I continue with your steps or did I do I need to change the IP adress higher?
I had the same problem
contacr your ISP Provider and tell to get STATIC IP
+Bruce Wayne The idea is to set your console to Static LAN IP lets say 10.0.0.15, then your router has to be told to allow any/ALL ports inbound/outbound. This gives you full Open NAT. has nothing to do with your ISP. all configured from your console and router. Please check your NAT type in a game like COD
This brought me from NAT 2 to NAT 3 I hate everything.
it didn't change the NAT type for me, I did everything mentioned.
hey i did everything you said do and my ps4 started freezing up right after and btw my parents put this linksys restriction on my ps4 so that I only play for a set amount of time . Should I open up my ports more or what idk.
And I want it off
+Sam Any way I can get the restriction off without them knowing because after I did what I did it let me connect to the internet but wouldn't let me connect to to psn and so I bumped my port number up higher and then the nat failed
