Xbox One: Change your NAT Type
To change your NAT type to “open” with port forwarding, open your PC and navigate to your router’s setup page.
1. Access the setup page by entering your router’s IP address into your browser’s address bar. Most routers have the default LAN IP address
192.168.0.1 or 192.168.1.1. See
a full list of default IP addresses here.
2. Login to access the setup page. The default password is usually “admin,” but here’s
a full list of default router passwords.
3. On your router’s setup page, navigate to “port forwarding.” Every router manufacturer arranges the setup page in a slightly different way.
Here’s how to
find the port-forwarding panel on a Linksys router, for example.
4. When you make it to the panel, a list of ports should pop up. Enable a new port and give it a name in the “Description” box.
5. Enter the inbound port number of your game and the type of port.
