I'm having problems connecting my PS4 to my router for game play. It keeps giving me a Nat type 2 and I'm wondering how to get it back to that. At least its not a Type 3 strict that my PS3 use to suffer from. Can anyone help me with this.
Hey Mortin, their are two things you can do. You can set up your PS4 to placed in a DMZ on your router or you can open up some ports. I'll post you a full guide later tonight on how to do this if someone doesn't beat me to it first.
Ive done it on PS3 before so presume PS4 has same settings?
Also you need to be able to access your modem/router settings.
Weird thing is my previous Dlink modem/router was usually open NAT,sometimes after a time it would switch to moderate then all Id have to do is reset it and it went back to open.
However a while ago I switched to a TP-Link modem/router and no matter how many times I reset it and go through its settings its always on moderate.
The only way I could change it to open was in PS3 settings and asign IP etc manually,and change modem settings to match.
But even in the end I switched back and left settings to automatic and went back to moderate. I usually have no probs with moderate NAT.
Its a strict NAT that will stuff you up.
But you say you have moderate NAT, isnt that good enough for you?
