Can someone confirm that upnp is not working? (moderate NAT)

Hi, I don't want to deal with DMZing the xbox, etc. I just want to set it and forget, because I often reset my network. That's why upnp comes in handy. Is this something on microsoft's end as to why it isn't working?

:)

 

UPnP not successful

i can't play but stupid nat type say moderate it supposed to stay nat type open

 

Upnp not successful

nat type changed to moderate and upnp is not successful

 

UPnP works fine for me. However, given the number of reports by others that it does not work at all for them (no ports are listed in the UPnP table), I am inclined to believe that there is some issue with the Xbox One and certain UPnP implementations, which
may depend on the model and firmware revision of the router. Even when UPnP is working, you will NOT see listed in the UPnP table all 7 or so ports that the Xbox support pages indicate must be open (and which as a result many people recommend forwarding).
Frankly, that page is really misleading. Some of the listed ports (e.g. 80 and 53) only need to be open outbound, not inbound, and, thus, do not need to be forwarded (port forwarding is needed to allow inbound connections, not outbound) and will not be if
using UPnP.

 

What is the model of your router and who is the internet service provider?

 

I can confirm the UpNp works on my network. Two routers I use are the Net Gear Nighthawk R7000 and the Linksys EA6500. Both routers have been hardwired. I retired the Linksys I am now on the Net gear exclusively.

I have not tried the wireless with X1 nor would I.

When you say you reset your network, your saying you just restart the router? That shouldn't make any difference in using the DMZ or port forwarding is you set the Xbox One to have a reserved IP (static). You should consider that.

Let us know how you make out!!

 

I have verizon fios which comes with an actiontec modem/router. However, I don't use the router part, but instead do a LAN to LAN connection to a wd mynet ac1300 router so I can use its wifi. Meanwhile, all the port forwarding is done on the actiontec.

 

Just DMZ'd the xbox one after setting a static IP and it worked. I was confused for a minute because it still said the NAT was moderate on the network settings screen. I then reset the xbox and it came up as open. This pisses me off, because it's possible
one of the countless troubleshooting methods I attempted prior may have worked, but the status just didn't update properly. Still, this solution is not good enough, as I don't want to DMZ anything.
