Ok this might be a tough one to explain. I'm running sumwhat of an odd network configuration because of budget restrictions (student life!) i am leaching off a nearby wifi connection i have access details to.
I'm running a PC with a wifi and ethernet adaptor, both connections have been network bridged using Network Connections. I am also running NOD32 Antivirus and Firewall but i have them dissabled for resolving this issue.
What i am trying to do is play Xbox 360 games without my NAT setting showing strict, sumwhat impossible
Anyway this network config is becase the wifi signal im leaching off wont reach my TV and xbox room so i use the PC to act as a router for the xbox. The wifi router im leaching off is set UPNP On, i know this because I can torrent with no problems. My first option was to use ICS but the wifi card card doesnt offer it as an option in settings like the lan card settings does.
What I want to know is, because now I am effectivly traveling through two routers, one wifi router - pnp on, one PC - firwall dissabled, what can I do to the PC (if anthing) to help the NAT to turn to Open? Becuase I've been told that the NAT gets messed up going through 2 routers?
The wifi router is a Netopier Enterprise edition model, im not sure exactly which model.
Any help would be appreciated.
