NAT breaks Windows update

Hi all,

After upgrading to 25.10 Windows update is not working anymore for devices that are behind NAT. Device that do not NAT so only routed and firewalled have no problems.

anyone a idea?

Not sure if you are still experiencing a problem, but you'll have to do better at explaining your situation.

EVERY device using an IPv4 address behind a firewall/router is NATTED.  The major function of a router is to handle NAT.  If you are having problems with devices behind your firewall/router communicating with "the internet", it is due to a configuration issue.  Hopefully we can help solve it, but you'll need to give us a lot more information before anyone can start to guess what the problem might be.
Just a hobbyist trying to figure all this out.
