Share with me tutorials on how to get an Open nat

[Nana Osakiiii]

If you guys had the strict nat problem before and now you have fixed it, tell me. I've been port forwarding, opening upnp, create a DMZ but haven't succeed yet

setting up a static ip is helpful for your computer becareful about using DMZ it exposes your computer to the internet
and further questions: do you have a modem and a router - two seperate boxes or just one box

oh lol i thought dmz and static ip are the same thing. I only have 1 box

[ZeaL]

with port forwarding lets say 5050 to 192.168.1.50 ,but if your computer restarts being not static it can be 192.168.1.49 making the port pointless

DMZ lets the flood gates open it more risky for hackers in my opinon

It confuses me on where should I put my setting cause there are no "external port","internal port" but I have "WAN port","Lan open port","Lan IP address", "wan setting", "wan interface" instead

I followed this tutorial: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hDswx8xGG8Q

whats your internet service provider and what is the model of your combo router box?

this should be a good place to start
i use this to set up my ports and etc

[ZeaL]

i would personally start with making a static ip address on your computer

Lets use the screenshot on the website you showed me yeah?
on the Virtual Server page, should I put my static IP or actual IP on the LAN IP Address?

[ZeaL]

i would say static since Lan mean local area network

[ZeaL]

and if you make any changes on the router i would restart the router and the computer to make sure the changes work for the ports

Do you have discord? it is easier to share screenshot that way
