NAT/PORT FORWARDING ISSUE ARCHER VR1210V - GAMING
2021-06-23 19:31:57 - last edited 2021-06-24 10:31:11
Model: Archer VR1200  
Hardware Version: V1
Firmware Version: 2.0.0 0.9 v6041.0 Build 201218 Rel.1689n

I have never had nat issue with my previous router.

Now, with vr1210v, I receive NAT RESTRICTED warning during online gaming sessions (Call of duty).

 

Upnp is already enabled

I have also tried to add rules in "virtual servers" section (3074 TCP/UDP as example) but seems it doesn't work.

Does I need to restart router?

 

What should I try?

Thank you

just found the issue..my new fiber contract put me on CG-NAT

this is why I can't use port forwarding

@Neon 

 

I notice you have just added the one port, there are a number of ports required for COD on PC/  Mix of TCP and USP

 

 

Platform TCP Ports UDP Ports
PC 3074, 27014-27050 3074, 3478, 4379-4380, 27000-27031, 27036

 

 

I would try opening them all as listed above, failing that you could place your device in the DMZ and that would remove all firewall / port restrictions but is a MASSIVE security risk
