First make sure your security type on the router is WEP-Personal. You may need to get the port range for that game or manufacturer. Then enter them in to the gaming tab. This will keep ports open all the time. NAT 2 is acceptable but you want NAT 1. Some internet connections cannot get NAT1.reply if you need further assistance

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.

The ports should be opened only in the router not in the x.box, go to a working pc..
To
allow traffic from the internet to enter your local network, you will
need to open up ports or the router will block the request.
Because our routers use NAT (Network Address Translation), you
can only open a specific port or ports to one computer at a time. For
example: If you have 2 web servers on your network, you cannot open
port 80 to both computers. You will need to configure 1 of the web
servers to use port 81. Now you can open port 80 to the first computer
and then open port 81 to the other computer.
Step 1 Open your web browser and enter the IP address of your
D-Link router (192.168.0.1). Enter username (admin) and your password
(blank by default).
Step 2 Click on the Advanced tab at the top and then click Virtual Server on the left side.
Step 3 Check Enabled to activate entry.
Step 4 Enter a name for your virtual server entry.
Step 5 Next to Private IP, enter the IP address of the computer on your local network that you want to allow the incoming service to.
Step 6 Choose Protocol Type - either TCP, UDP, or both. If you are not sure, select both.
Step 7 Enter the port information next to Private Port and Public Port.
The private and public ports are usually the same. The public port is
the port seen from the WAN side, and the private port is the port being
used by the application on the computer within your local network.
Step 8 Enter the Schedule information.
Step 9 Click Apply and then click Continue.

Ok kids... all you hve to do is log in to your belkin 54g at http://192.168.2.1
Find out what ip address your xbox is using and then Click on the DMZportion of your settings on the left hand side of the page.
Enter the xbox's ip address and click the enable box.
Click apply.
Your NAT will now be OPEN!
Cheers!
