Set Up Port Forwarding On Two Xbox 360

I have two Xbox 360 on my network.

The IP address assigned are as follow:
Xbox 1
XXX.XXX.XXX.3

Xbox 2
XXX.XXX.XXX.4

I have set all settings to manual. I am trying to open these ports, UDP 88, UDP 3074 and TCP 3074.

I had no trouble opening the ports for the first Xbox but having trouble with the second one.  My Modem/Router is Billion 7404 VGP.  

How do I get around the problem. When I run the live test I get the NAT error, it connects but says that my network is moderate.

ive got a linksys wrt54gl v1.1 with dd-wrt firmware along with 2 360's on my network(1 elite and 1 premium). i cant recall any problems getting both of them running? did you enable UPNP? why did you have to forward a port? i never had to do it when i got mine hooked up? it may just be your router thats not xbox compatible.

even with dd-wrt (which i use also) or without routers will not allow you to open the SAME ports on DIFFERENT ip addresses.  your only option here is either turn off your SPI(or hardware) firewall NOT SMART!!  or you just use upnp it will work fine!  i have 4 360's on my network of about 15 users and all the 360s work fine on upnp and can party up or play separate games.  make sure to get UPNP enabled on your router!

Mine hardware firewall is already turned off.

If I leave the settings to auto then it is not a problem. When I change the network settings to manual I get the NAT error.

UPNP is already enabled.

Why not leave it on automatic then?

I need to login in from office and need static IP address for the P.C. If it clashes then it can screw up the whole system.

One thing I don't understand is that why the ports will be open on auto but not on manual when all my settings are exactly the same.
