NAT Type Reference Guide
Port Availability Suite
Batch-test essential cloud gaming ports via external probe. Apply presets, enter custom ranges, and confirm forwarding rules instantly.
Leave blank to auto-detect. Or enter any hostname / IP for a targeted scan.
Comma-separated. Ranges: 27015-27030. Append /udp for UDP. Max 20 ports per scan.

Advanced Router Config — Quick Guides
Compact explainers to help you unlock Open NAT, master port forwarding, and prioritise gaming packets.
Open NAT Playbook
- Assign a static IP to your console or gaming PC before applying port rules.
- Enable UPnP for automatic port negotiation when available.
- If your router supports it, activate "Full Cone NAT" or "NAT Acceleration".
- Avoid double NAT by using bridge mode on secondary routers.
Port Forwarding Blueprint
- Forward both TCP and UDP ranges to the device IP.
- Use consecutive port ranges to simplify firewall rules.
- After saving rules, reboot the router to clear stale NAT tables.
- Verify open ports using this tool and in-game network tests.
DSCP Tagging & QoS Enhancements
- Mark gaming traffic with DSCP EF (46) or CS6 priority where supported.
- Pair DSCP tagging with Smart Queue Management (SQM) to tame bufferbloat.
- Allocate at least 30 % reserved bandwidth to gaming devices during heavy use.
- Regularly update router firmware for the latest QoS improvements.
Fixing Symmetric NAT
- Check if your ISP uses Carrier-Grade NAT (CGNAT). If so, request a public IP.
- Enable port triggering or DMZ (temporarily) to validate the issue.
- Some routers allow configuring "NAT type" directly — look for Full Cone or Endpoint Independent options.
- As a last resort, a VPN with a static IP can provide a stable NAT environment.
