Title: Strict Nats (360)
Post by: Defiant1337 on January 17, 2008, 08:47:00 AM
I have until recently accessed Live via XP by it's network bridge (ICS) & had no problems however my mobo fried and so I'm using my sons until I get another setup.    His computer is Windows 2000 and I've setup XBOX Live with ICS, can sign in but it keeps showing a strict nats even though I've allowed the ports 88 & 3074.  Does anyone know away around this ?

Thanks but it's not the easiest way when I have a 100mbit network that works just fine and has low ping's for PC games. Only the 360 is giving me problems which is why I was hoping their would be something to sort this strict nats thing out

Routers would work in your situation, why wouldn't you bother with one? It won't slow you down. ICS can be squirrelly when it comes to XBL, I was able to get it after tweaking stuff on my brother's setup but it's an odd hybrid involving a router.
