NAT type cant change as just it like firewall so mean from your router to your ISP company which is Streamyx got limitation speed towards the country and you will get slow speed due to global routing protocol too far from the place we want to reach

NAT 3 mean your router got firewall which blocking your connection

mostly when we do test should be getting NAT 2 , i tried to dmz on my router as well and bypass the port provided by EA company for FIFA games but yet i still getting NAT 2

maybe you can google and see cause certain people able to bypass fully get NAT 1

Succesfully changed from NAT3 to NAT2. Spending 2 days figured out how do it. Just follow the step from portfoward.com and refer which port should be foward for ps4 and fifa15 thumbup.gif

NAT 1 is direct connection from modem to PS4. No wifi

I'm using NAT 2 but purposely try test to get NAT 1.

Attached Image

This is the step I used to setup NAT 1

1. Get UNIFI acc password
2. Set PPPOE relay in your router (I'm using AC-68)
3. Setup network connect in your PS4, by connecting PPPOE
4. Run test. Done


Successfully connected but not stable. always time out. doh.gif dunno y. Perhaps any sifu here can advise notworthy.gif

NAT 1 is direct connect to the game server.

In MY ISP, mostly do have firewall rules. So you can't really get NAT1

I can get NAT Type 1 IF I connect my PS4 directly to the modem (not router) and set ur internet connection on ur modem as bridge mode.on ur console set the internet with PPoE (use ur TM username and pword the one u use on ur modem to connect to the internet).

NAT Type 1:
Your Playstation is the PPPOE dailer (through Ethernet NIC cable) where you enter and save your ISP's login and password in your Playstation, while your modem is configured as bridge mode while connected to your Playstation Ethernet NIC by cable (or direct cable connection).

In this mode your Playstation cable Ethernet network port will hold the public IP address.
So any ping, port scanning, brute force, DDOS attack from the Internet, your Playstation firmware OS will face all of it directly. (THERE IS NO FIREWALL HERE!)

However, in this NAT Type 1 mode any ports can be freely opened or closed by your Playstation, so you will not have failure to accept any incoming connection requests from the Internet by other people to any port numbers (to host chat server, host game server, and etc) unless your ISP sucks and blocks any uncommon port numbers.
If in this kind of PPPOE dailer you are unable to get NAT Type 1 when your Playstation is holding a public IP address, then this is ISP-side firewall blocking.
Reconnect PPPOE to get an unblocked public IP address or just change your ISP to a better one.

* And none of your LAN devices can connect to Internet since the public IP is hogged by your Playstation and it can't share the Internet with any other devices since there is no ICS setting (Internet Connection Sharing) like Windows.



NAT Type 2:
Your modem or your router will be the PPPOE dailer where your ISP's login and password is saved in either the modem or router.

The public IP address will be held by the modem/router.
Any ping, port scanning, brute force, DDOS attack from the Internet will be faced by the modem/router's firmware firewall.

Your Playstation will hold the LAN IP address on either the cable Ethernet NIC of WiFi interface.

Most people will get NAT Type 2 in this kind of network setup where the low end modem/router firewall do not have any restrictions on TCP/UDP outgoing requests and allows your Playstation console and (your PCs too) to freely connect to any service ports hosted on the Internet (ex. port 80 for HTTP webpages, port 443 for HTTPS, port 21 for FTP patch servers downloads, and etc.)
This can also be easily achieved by enabling uPNP support on both the modem/router and Playstation console together.
uPNP will auto open ports or delete port forwarding in modem/router firewall in real time, whenever you start or end the game or apps. (However, some uPNP support is buggy on some modem/routers!)



NAT Type 3 :
Same network setup like NAT Type 2 above BUT the firewall on your modem/router is too restrictive like a corporate Internet gateway that only allows very limited outgoing TCP/UDP requests.

Want to access "www.playstation.com" website/webpage? TCP HTTP port 80 ? OK!
Want to access "www.playstation.com" store secure website/webpage? TCP HTTPS port 443 ? OK!
Want to access "www.playstation.com" FTP patch server for downloads? FTP port 21 ? SCREW YOU, DENIED!
Want to access BF4 server to play online? TCP port 1935, 3478-3480? UDP port 3478-3479? MUST BE SOME KIND OF UNKNOWN ALIEN PORTS! SCREW YOU, DENIED!

This can be resolved to NAT Type 2 by either manually specifying every required TCP/UDP outgoing and incoming ports numbers in the modem/router firewall settings (Port Forwarding/Virtual Servers).

Shortcut :
Specify your Playstation LAN IP address as DMZ in your modem/router firewall where ALL incoming & outgoing ports will be handled by your Playstation.
(Not 100% solution due to DMZ implementation could be different depending on hardware and firmware of your modem/router. Sometimes it is just plain faulty and buggy)

Not so Shortcut :
Replace the modem/router to an easier home consumer grade where the firewall are more relaxed and easy.
Or be like a Boss and do a direct PPPOE dialing connection from your Playstation to get NAT Type 1 and face all the Internet attacks like a hero.

Usually not possible.
ISP do not give public IP addresses to hotspots since wasting a precious public IP address on it will confirmed under utilized.
