Hi everyone, I have tried to open up my ports on the router VR2100 but it worked for some games like GTA however, Call of Duty still saying the NAT type is strict. Is anyone able to fix this?

Here:

 

 

Just make sure that you have your public IP address on the Internet port of your VR2100 (otherwise this won't work for you):

Hi, sorry I'm new to this. What is the service type and for NAT forwarding do I need enable DMZ? And which ip address?

You can't open all ports at once - you can use a DMZ to your PC IP address but that's risky in terms of your network security.

Follow this guide on how to open the ports one by one.

For DMZ follow this guide.

Configuring address reservation for your PC would be a good idea if its IP address is received by the modem DHCP.

Follow the guide I posted for configuring virtual server (port-forwarding). You can name the service type manually (that's in the guide).

For all this to work refer my second post and make sure that you are with a public IP address on your modem internet port.

what do you mean by "Just make sure that you have your public IP address on the Internet port of your VR2100 (otherwise this won't work for you):"?

 

public ip address on internet port?
