    My NAT type is strict when using a wired connection, and Open when using a wireless connection.


    As the title says, whenever I am using a Wireless connection, my Xbox One's NAT type is strict; when i try to use a wired connection (to improve my Twitch Streaming and such) it switches to a Strict NAT.

    What do I need to do in order to fix this? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    :)

    Port forwarding

    I have a wired connection but it always says 'NAT Type: Unavailable' along with 'No services available'

    But when I use my wireless connection it says the NAT Type is open and says all services are open.

    How do I get my wired connection to work and make the NAT Type open along with all services available?

  3. Connection Problems

    I contacted my ISP and had them boost my speeds a little and I had to move my router into the same room. Fixed and I don't disconnect unless its Xbox's fault. Make sure your NAT type is open a moderate or strict NAT type causes a lot of issues with connection.
    Try using a wired connection as well.

    Hey, Orwell!

    What a weird issue! This could be dependent on a few things. The first one being your router that you're connected to. Can you post back with the manufacturer and model number of that, please? Same with your modem. A gut feeling I have is that you have a
    modem and router, but the modem is actually a gateway which is a 2-in-1 device. What might be happening is that your wireless connection is actually through the gateway, while the wired connection is through the router.

    However, these are all assumptions until I have that information.

    We'll be able to start from there to determine our next steps. I look forward to working with you! My NAT type is strict when using a wired connection, and Open when using a wireless connection. :)

    Can't log to Xbox live

    Xbox one, do you even wired connection?

    I live in the Unites States, Tennessee

    The modem is a technicolor tc8305c

    Not using a router

    My xbox one and one more xbox one

    Both are using a wireless connection

    I'm not sure if the UPnP is enabled or disabled

    I normally have an open nat type, sometimes it's moderate or strict

    It just says you are not connected when a wire is plugged in

    And my ISP is comcast

    Open NAT, but still can't connect with friends who also have Open NAT

    When I test it on wireless, nothing pops up so I'm assuming it's an open NAT. However when I test it on a wired connection, it brings up a message saying "your online experience may be limited...", so I'm assuming it's moderate.

    Most games tell you what your NAT type is and it's always says it's open when I'm on wireless and moderate when on wired. It has never been strict.

    Thanks

    Xbox not working 100%

    Have you tried a wired connection also what NAT Type strict mod or open it needs to be at least mod but open is best when I go wireless it always goes strict when i go wired its back to wired its open.

    Its a known issue as people use different ISP and routers its hard to pin down but they are working on it,

    I think it unlikely to be your console but you could check other threads on this issue sorry for taking some time to get back to you.
