I believe certain routers are certain NAT types. If there is not an option to change NAT type on the web interface for your router, then it is what it is.

Hope that helps

SOURCE: set nat to open

These routers have a setting underneath the advanced tab (within advanced setup) called UPNP.....all three of the active tick boxes need a tick in (by default they don't) and this will sort the NAT stuff out.

NAT rating can be remedied by either turning on UPnP on your router, DMZ or portforwarding. This site has some good guides on how to improve your NAT rating when connected wirelessly to xbox live:

SOURCE: change NAT from strict to open

You need to do port forwarding on your router. First, you must setup a static IP address on your XBOX. Then You must open these ports on your router setup page using Port Forwarding feature. 80 TCP and UDP, 53 TCP and UDP, 3074 TCP and UDP.

SOURCE: how do i change strict nat to open with a ZyLEX

To change your NAT into open, you need to open some port. That's done using port forwarding feature of your router. Go to www.portforward.com for instructions on how to do it.

SOURCE: i need to change my nat type from strict to open

This router does not have the typical "strict or open" NAT types. Looking at the manual, it looks like what you want is NAT enabled and SUA only enabled.

I have a PS3 and I want to change nat type from strict to open when I play Black Ops. My router is a Thomson TG585 v8. How can I do that? Thank You in advance

Hi, I'm not familiar with Thomson routers, but you can watch this video, which details the process for a netgear router. The process will most likely be similar for your router.

Nat type strict on ps3

I have windstream and it is always strict. You may want to go into your modem and make the router a DMZ. Just make sure your firewall stuff has not been changed on the router. Then DMZ your ps3 static ip. If that does not work I have been told i need to call my isp to get them to change it somehow. Or you could supposedly bridge it, but I gave up on it. I just accept the fact that sometimes I cant play with certain people or chat with certain people.

Ok my nat type is strict and i am trying to change to open

You want the NAT open for X-box ?

For X-box you will need to open some ports on the router.

Also you will need to reduce down the MTU on the router to 1365.
That will work.
for this you will need to open the router set up.
