XboX One and NAT

Hello All,

I have just bought my son an Xbox One X and am trying to get it set up so he can play Fortnite.  I did some forum checking and found this:

https://forum.opnsense.org/index.php?topic=3521.0

where there was supposed to be a guide on how to get open NAT for the xbox one, unfortunately its been removed and then moved to the FAQ section but without any guide to follow.  Does anyone have a guide that can be posted up or could someone update that thread?  I could use trial and error but 10 year olds are not the most patient creatures on earth.

Thanks

Short Version:


* Give your XB1 (or PS4, same process required) a static IP
* Install/Enable UPNP
* Set "User Specified Permissions" to "allow 88-65535 10.1.1.x/32 88-65535", where 10.1.1.x is the static ip of the XB1/PS4
* Firewall>NAT>Outbound - Set to Hybrid/Manual rule generation
* Create a rule with the following set: "Source Address - Single Host or network - 10.1.1.x" & "Static Port - Checked"
* Do a hard-reboot of your XB1/PS4 (shutting it down and pulling the power for 2 mins will do"
You should now have a NAT Type of Moderate (XB1), or Type 2 (PS4).

Brilliant.  That has worked.   ;D Thanks for the help.

I confirm this works for PS4. It even didn't take PS4 reboot, just going to menu showed it's Type2.

I opened only ports > 1024 for upnp, and it worked even with that.

Thanks!

Tried these instructions and nothing... I also tried the following:

I have the same issue.


I've created a Alias and added my xbox's IPs as the content.
created a WAN Rule to allow any port connection to the Alias
created a WAN Rule to allow any port connection to the xbox IPs
created a Outbound NAT for the Alias
created a Outbound NAT for the xbox IPs

So far nothing I do seems to work for me. I pull up my xbox and see

NAT Type: Strict
UPnP not successful
