Sorry for the long winded title! My problem:
I have always had Strict NAT on my XBox, no matter what I try. I'm not a complete novice so have some (I hope most) understanding of how to change settings on the Homehub. Anyway, I have tried several times to change this - I've tried Port forwarding, DMZ, UPnP and Voodoo, but it just won't budge from Strict. Turning the router off and on, and using the reset, doesn't do anything either.
Now, to explain my setup: basically from the Homehub router, the second port has an ethernet to a homeplug. This is then picked up by another homeplug, but here may be the problem: this then goes into an 8 port router to be shared between Xbox, PS3, Laptop etc.
Is this possibly in the way and causing conflict? Any help would really be great!!!
[EDIT] Could it even be the ethernet cables themselves? Are some only one direction, if so, how do I check this?
