Hello Everyone,

Well after a year of searching and testing out methods and asking for help I finally put a guide to get an open nat when trying to get on xbox live with you samsung device.

Requirements:
1. A Windows PC (with a wireless adapter etc...) desktop or laptop.
2. The ability to use ICS on you computer
3. A phone that can tether.
4. A router.
5. 2 ethernet cables.
6. An Xbox

Step 1: Follow this guide:

1. Enable wifi tethering on your device

2. Connect PC to wireless signal

3. Open Network and Sharing center (start/control panel/ network and internet/network and sharing center)

4. Click change adapter settings

5. Right click on your shared internet connection ( in this case should be your WIFI connection), select properties, sharing tab, check: Allow other network users to control or disable the shared internet connection.

6. Stay on the sharing tab and click settings, uncheck everything under settings, now click add:

Description of Service- Xbox1
Name or IP address of the computer hosting this service on your network: ( name of your comp )
External Port: TCP 53
Internal Port: TCP 53

Description of Service: Xbox 2
Name of IP address of the computer hosting this service on your network:
External Port: UDP 53
Internal Port: UDP 53

Description of Service: Xbox 3
Name of IP address of the computer hosting this service on your network:
External Port: UDP 88
Internal Port: UDP 88

Description of Service: Xbox 4

Internal Port: TCP 3074

Description of Service: Xbox 5

Internal Port: UDP 3074.

Step 2: Run an ethernet cable to your router. Once connected run an additional ethernet cable to your Xbox.

Step 3: Once everything is running you should be able to connect to XBOX LIVE with an open nat and be able to connect to virtually anyone in the world.

Could someone pin this topic so it doesn't disappear into the forums.
 
So your connecting right? try connecting without the xbox settings, see what happens that should still give you an open nat
 
Ok. But can i use a usb cable tethering app to do this? That is connect the router to my laptop and then either connect the xbox one to the internet through the router?
 
hey eric, just wanted to say thanks heaps for this guide mate, i was looking everywhere and this worked in about 5 minutes.
thanks again :)
 
Is it the same ports if using PS4?
