Multiple XBOX Hell

[banditti]

Ok, I have spent 2-3 days reading every post I can find on how to setup OPNsense for multiple XBOX.  I think I am close, meaning I show both XBOX's with open NAT, but Rainbow 6 Seige will only connect the first person.  This is what I've tried so far:

https://www.tweaking4all.com/network-internet/pfsense-strict-nat-xbox-one/

There is a deny 3074 192.168.70.0/24 0-65535 at the bottom I have in there too.


Thoughts?

If you have multiple public WAN IP addresses, set up a 1:1 NAT for one (or both) of the consoles.

If not, put one XBOX behind a router with a VPN client. A second OPNsense (easier with VM's) or a mini router with OpenWRT: https://openwrt.org/docs/guide-user/services/vpn/openvpn/client with a VPN provider. Tunnelbear has a free tier for testing: https://www.tunnelbear.com/pricing

One of these should handle the traffic: https://www.friendlyarm.com/index.php?route=product/product&path=69&product_id=274

The idea is for each XBOX to have a different public IP address.

That would be lovely if I could have multiple public IP's, but COX doesn't allow that.

I do get assigned (1) IPv4 address and (1) IPv6 address, I wonder if i separated out that way if it would work?

If you can find game servers on IPv6 then there isn't a problem since there is no NAT. Just allow the necessary ports through the firewall.

Check if your internal clients are picking up an IPv6 address: https://ifconfig.co or http://www.kame.net to see if the turtle swims.

Hello,

i do this because i don't want UPNP :

Create an aliase with my xbox "XboxGroup_NAT"
Create an aliase with xbox port "Port_XBOX"

53,80,88,500,3074,3544,4500,7500:7509,30000:30009,443,1001,1200:1299

Create rule NAT Forward

         Source         Destination         NAT   
Interface      Proto   Address  Ports            Address          Ports       IP       Ports      
WAN        TCP/UDP      *   Port_XBOX     WAN address   Port_XBOX     XboxGroup_NAT     Port_XBOX           

With NAT reflextion "Enable"
