Help with NAT type and open NAT for Gaming
«

I have recently set up OPNSense as a router in PPPOE mode. I don't know much about networking and so far have configured using different queries from the forum and some guide videos. I have static internet connection from my ISP, coming in as PPPOE so there's no double NATing or double routing. I'm getting NAT type 3.
I set up a seperate VLAN called gaming only for game consoles. I would like to open ports for it to have the Playstation NAT type changed to 2 or 1. I tried setting up port forwarding but I'm stuck as either the set up is incorrect or some other problem as the NAT type is still showing Type 3.
On a seperate note, I'm getting higher pings on wifi now on OPNSense and internet drops drastically from time to time, which the ISP claims to be the router's problem.
Any help on either matter would be highly appreciated. TIA.

I am not an expert by any means. I am having a similar problem I am working on. I think mine is a known issue with Xbox but check out this it might help explain NAT a little more has some "official how to's".
The manual is handy if you know the terms to look up. (I don't)
