Played Call of Duty recently and struggled locating a game, mentioning a moderate NAT type. I entered specific ports but faced difficulties with my router not allowing range settings, which would have required multiple increments. Other TP-Link users report the same problem. Using my IPv4 address as the host IP for DMZ might help open ports automatically.

A DMZ allows traffic to reach all ports without restriction, but confirm the firewall is active on the affected device since any open ports could be exposed to the internet.

Check your firewall settings to confirm it's active.

The simplest approach is to configure the PC as a public network instead of private. I don’t recall exactly where this setting is located—I usually end up searching in loops trying to locate it. Of course, you’ll also need to ensure the game initiates properly and requests the necessary ports, or you’d have to manually adjust firewall settings, which I haven’t attempted before.
