    I've posted this on the Netgear forums and am copying/pasting here.. hopefully this is the right section for this topic. Sorry if it's not.

    Hardware Version: WNDR3700 v1
    Firmware Version: V1.0.7.98NA

    First of all I'm not sure support personnel here are aware of NAT issues with Xbox Live on the Xbox One but I figured I'd give it a shot...

    I am trying to 'open' my NAT for Xbox Live but in the Network Settings on the Xbox One I am not getting anything better than 'Moderate' for my NAT Type. I have searched the Xbox Forums and support pages, as well as various other internet sites regarding this issue. I have done the following:

    • Set a static IP on my Xbox One
    • Enabled/disbled DMZ for the IP address of my Xbox One
    • Enabled/disabled UPnP
    • Forwarded ports needed for Xbox Live on the Xbox One
    • Done all of the above with different combinations of enabled/disabled (from what I understand it may not work with more than one of those options enabled at the same time)

    NAT still listed as 'Moderate' after everything I've tried. (yes I've restarted the router/unplugged it for 2 minutes/etc..)

    Is there a known issue with the WNDR3700 v.1 and my current firmware with it's NAT settings/abilities? This is apparently a wide-spread problem with the Xbox One so I'm not sure it's my router, but I figured I'd ask here to see what you guys had to say.
