Why do I get kicked from party NAT unavailable or strict moderate os open it doesn't work

Hi there! This is Virginia O.

I understand that you are experiencing issues being kicked out in a party.

I apologize for the inconvenienced this has caused you. I will do my best to help you.

Here are the troubleshooting steps to perform:

Please Go to Settings > General > Network settings on your Xbox and check your NAT type. It should be set to "Open" for the best connectivity.

If it's not, follow these steps to make your NAT type Open.

First is to enable UPnP on your router. Log into your router's settings (usually by typing your router's IP address into a web browser) and enable UPnP (Universal Plug and Play). This can help automatically open the necessary ports for Xbox Live.

And then manually set port forwarding. If UPnP doesn't work, you can manually set port forwarding on your router.

Please open the following ports:

Port 88 (UDP)

Port 3074 (UDP and TCP)

Port 53 (UDP and TCP)

Port 80 (TCP)

Port 500 (UDP)

Port 3544 (UDP)

Port 4500 (UDP)

After port forwarding kindly power cycle your network hardware. To do this turn off your Xbox, router, and modem. Unplug them for a few minutes, then plug them back in and turn them on.

Hoping that this'll enable you to join a party successfully.

Thank you for your cooperation.

How NAT works is if your NAT is set to open, you can communicate with other open, moderate, or strict NATs. If it's moderate, you can the other person's NAT must be moderate or open. If it's set to Strict you can party chat with other people who have only
an open NAT.

What is your NAT? You can see it listed in your Network Settings. Having a Moderate or Strict NAT could cause party chat issues. If it shows Moderate or Strict, then we can work on helping get your NAT to Open if possible. Let us know.

Either you and or some of the people in party have a moderate or strict NAT.

Run the Live connection test and post your results.

If you do have a moderate or strict NAT, here's how to get it changed to OPEN. Link

I found this article on how to enable Open NAT. It also explains why this occurs. it is an interesting read and afterwards you should be able to figure out why you get this problem and how to fix it yourself. I worked for me!
