  1. Finding a router for 3 Xbox Ones on a single network


    I have comcast and their standard gateway. I have read the Netgear Nighthawk r7000 could handle this while providing an open NAT for all consoles. I just want to make sure before dropping the cash on a router. If I am posting this in the wrong place I was
    refered here via Support and I apologize.

  2. New Network Connection

    I set Up my Xbox one with my first wifi network, like normal. Since it was really slow I got a new network and router. Everything is different now, but since the Xbox only remember ones network, will I have to type my wifi password in every single time I
    turn it on?

    Multiple Xbox One Consoles on Destiny - Need Open NAT on all - Centipede error

    **2 XBOX ONES ON A SINGLE NETWORK PLAYING TOGETHER FIX**

    Well, after spending about 3 hours going through multiple solutions...i created a hybrid solution and it worked! A few things before i explain how i accomplished this problem.

    1. I always had both xbox ones with a NAT type of OPEN. Don't know WHY it never worked, but i was able to join my roommate's party, but unable to join his fire team in destiny.

    2. I have a Cisco Linksys WRT120N.

    3. I tried doing the uPnP method that is floating around the internet with no luck

    Here's how I solved it....

    Quick and Dirty: I hooked up a Second router to my network (I had a few laying around) using these directions:

    www.justanswer.com/.../79ib6-hi-purchased-d-link-n300-dir-605l-router-secondary.html


    I disabled uPnP on both routers. Connected The 1st xbox one to the existing router (wireless) and the 2nd xbox one to the newly installed router. NOTE: Ensure port triggering, port forwarding and any other option under the "Application and Gaming" tab
    is disabled.

    Note: the second router i used was a Linksys WRT54G

    I figured since we had uPnP enabled on 1 router to support two Xbox ones...would we need to enable if it was just one xbox one on the network? Each router is it's own network, but obviously reverts back to the same gateway. I didn't think it would work
    because of that, but having each xbox one on it's own router seemed to do the trick. Act as if each xbox isn't even in the same household and it's the only xbox one assigned to that router.

    It worked for me...hopefully this helps everyone! Hit me up if you have any questions. I am by no means a super techy networking guy...i dabble in this stuff for fun. So if you come at me with crazy questions i may not be able to answer them. I apologize
    up front.

    Finding a router for 3 Xbox Ones on a single network

    Do you have a comcast modem or comcast modem/router combo. If it's the router combo, there's no reason you can't use it, no need for a secondary router. My friend had a comcast modem/router combo and had 2 Xbox Ones and a 360 and they all worked great, all
    had open nat.

  5. Hey there J Skellington,

    It looks like this Router will support more than 2 consoles with an Open NAT. More information can be found on our Network Hardware Forums HERE.

    Need Recommendations For A Gateway That Works With Multiple Xbox's

    Hi there Xarcell!

    I would not recommend a modem and router in a single device. You will find a much broader market for router's that support multiple xboxes connecting to the same router Internet connection, that are not a combined device (modem with built-in router).

    A customized firmware is not necessary to use as an alternative firmware as long as the manufacturer's firmware can support multiple xboxes.

    I think you will be helped by the Networking Hardware Information forums.

    2 xbox ones same network games that work in party

    No you can't, Port forwarding is for single xbox, you can try port triggering, or put one xbox in your DMZ and forward ports to other. Or buy a router...put modem in BRIDGE mode, and let the router handle your network. Buy a router that is known to handle
    multiple Xbox at same time.

    Connection Issue w/ Multiple Xbox's - Same Connection

    If possible, Make sure you do Port Range Forwarding and not just Port Forwarding. Most router sallow any ports enabled in Port Range Forwarding to communicate to any device on the network, while regular Port Forwarding specifies a single device on the network.
