Are you experiencing problems with your internet service provider? Let's troubleshoot the NAT issues together.
Hey there! I understand your situation. Living in a rural area of New Mexico with limited internet options is tough. You're using satellite and local wireless services, which have their pros and cons. The satellite connection isn’t great for gaming, but the local one gives you decent speeds and low latency.
Your wisp setup has a double NAT configuration, which blocks online gaming. I’m not an expert on networking, but I can try to help you figure out what’s going wrong. If you can share more details about your router models or any error messages, it would be easier to troubleshoot. Let me know how I can assist further!
Are there no cable internet choices nearby? Both of these options rely on signals, and both satellite and wireless services can be heavily impacted by surroundings. When you ask if you can't play games, are you referring to poor connection quality or lag during gameplay, or does it prevent you from joining online servers or games altogether?
Double Nat blocks all online multiplayer games. I’d love to have cable internet. I’m paying $135 for 3Mbps. I understand it’s not the best for gaming, but it functions and isn’t getting any better. My connection is slow—like living in a digital black hole. I’m eager for Elon’s satellite plan.
It's possible you're solving this problem. Several wireless and cellular ISPs use NAT64-CGN to support multiple customers from a single IP address. This kind of advanced NAT isn't achievable on your own. You might consider UPnP or set up your own VPN, connecting to a more flexible server for online gaming. The trade-off would be increased latency.
