I recently found out about NAT problems with Nintendo Switch devices, and I'm looking for ways to address similar issues before they affect games like Xbox or PC titles. Most of the games I know of are either Xbox or PC versions that connect via Xbox (e.g., Halo: Infinite, Helldivers, Valorant), not Nintendo Switch. Is there a universal fix you can use for both your family VLAN and your Switch setup? Right now, I'm using this configuration for my Switch.

When uncertain, apply the standard NAT rule so all traffic uses a fixed port. The sole exception for port randomization is that Xbox continues to favor uPNP for dynamic port forwarding. It's unclear how crucial this remains for current gaming experiences.
