How the *** do i fix my NAT setting which is on Strict, i can hardly join matches on GoW easily because of it! and from what iv read about fixing NAT related issues all it tells me is to get the right router! iv got a freaking router i dont need another! there surely must be some way to change this annoying crap, please tell me there is? I posted this on Xbox.com but nobody is posting on it, i read this thing on how to fix it but its all so confusing. Help please.

That happened to me. Mines was on Moderate. Try going to network settings> edit settings and try a different connection.

Kid account?

I never lag unless your Host is some crap.

No its not a kid account. Its just a network. Like if you have a certain network like linksys or NETGEAR it has a different NAT.

How do i change it by editing network settings, if it was that simple i would of read about it when i was browsing on a solution. Anyway the thread on Xbox.com got a reply and the guy said to call your service provider and tell them to change it or give you the code to do so...il wait abit more and see what replies i get.

Go to the Xbox 360 Dashboard>The Settings Blade>Network Settings>Edit Settings. and go to the bottom and click that and change to something that has a better connection and test you xbox live connection and it should be fixed.

Ok in Edit Network Settings, down the bottom it says - Wireless Mode, Network Name (SSID) Network Type and Wireless Security...when i select that section to edit all it has is the router i currently have connected and with an only option to type in another WEP key and under that, Specify Unlisted Network and Create Ad-Hoc Network which all have virtual keyboards to type network names in. Help again lol..no quite sure what to go into.

every time i sign into xbox live my nat is strict but all i have to do to fix it is test my xbox live conncection . so if u have tryed that which im sure you have i dont really no what to tell you but i will look into if for u

well from what i have found i can recommed that ub cheak that the settings of your firewalls have the ports
88 UDP
3074 UDP
3074 TCP
all open if when u do this and test ur connection it still does not work set your consoles static ip address. In this case, select something like 192.168.2.27
also one more thing to try if this didnt work is to cheack that the UPnP on the router is set to on some times it will be set to off by default
