  1. University Connection


    After 6 months of being patient. I can't do it anymore. It is pretty obvious nowadays that college students game, and they game hard. Gaming online requires a good internet connection which my college (I understand not many of them do) does provide. My only
    problem is that Xbox one's NAT type setting is *** up. My NAT fluctuates all the time between moderate and strict and this entire week I've been stuck with strict and it's downright annoying. I can't connect with any of my friends in a game. I can only hear
    or speak to people in a party by miracle of some person joining and in some way acting as a buffer between us (I know that's hard to understand, trust me I don't understand it either it just happens sometimes) but most of the time I can never use the party
    app effectively due to my NAT type. I used to be able to do the system settings, network, rtrbltlb, b button trick and switch my Nat to moderate but it doesn't work anymore. So I took it upon myself to bother my IT guy with it. He tried using my MAC address
    to fix it. He said a lot of other students were having this problem and found that after researching that Xbox's connection settings looks for a home base router. Guess what, Colleges don't use those! Now I don't know a lot about NAT types and how they work,
    what I do know is that my friend down the hall with his PS4 is having more fun than me because his NAT type is fine. So if you will please people make this a big enough problem for Xbox to see, and maybe just maybe they'll develop a solution so us gamers with
    this problem can Chilllllllllll.

    Solved. Set up network yields the MAC address.

    University Connection

    In order to connect to the internet , I need the MAC address of the Xbox to register with my university. However, it does not seem possible to find this until the console has been set-up. Is there any way to get the MAC address before installing the Day
    One update?

    You could always talk to your University's IT department.

    NAT Issues - University Halls Connection

    you will find that your connected to a shared internet connection your university IT department wont help as they would have a few people wanting it and it would chew up the bandwith for the building / university.

    Problem connecting at University.

    That would suggest to me that they are blocking the Xbox live ports you would have to ask the network admin about that

    Problem connecting at University.

    Yes the internet requires a login, however last year on the same campus we could log into live and it would just be limited. The issue just seems to be the insufficent MTU that I can't seem to get around without ICS
