Hello Meteor,

We understand the issue here has to do with the unavailability of the NAT Type, and have a suggestion for you.

Please attempt to follow our NAT Type Unavailable support article, which is specifically created for
this exact situation.

Attempt to follow the support article and let us know if this was helpful.

Best wishes!

Hello, lil metetor

Please try https://support.xbox.com/en-GB/xbox-one/networking/nat-error-solution

If that does not work please navigate to your advanced settings and check the alternate mac address once thats done hold your power button on the console until it turns off. Then turn off your router for 5 -10 mins meanwhile unplug all cables from your xbox.
After the ten mins turn your router on then plug all your cables back into your xbox.

Its what i had to do once, but that was awhile ago. Good luck if you continue to have issues please try contacting xbox support.

I have a question what could cause this issue if both me and my friend have a open nat type and still can't join each others live party and game

Hi there Bondfreak,

Thanks for the replies and for reaching out to Xbox Forums. I'm sorry to hear about the issue with NAT type unavailable. If you haven't already, I recommend to check out the following articles:

• NAT Type: Unavailable in your network settings
• "I can't hear my friends online, or I can't join or host a multiplayer game with my Xbox One"
• UPnP not successful in your network settings

Currently, we do have an emerging issue with users experiencing the difficulties in accessing Xbox Live or a number of multiple Microsoft services currently are customers using ATT services.

Hope this helps.
