i can't thank u enough! i have been searching for a fix for days b4 i came across this post. i can CONFIRM this works/still works...here is my setup for others interested.

verizon wireless 4g LTE

phone - droid razr maxx

windows operateing system - windows 7 64-bit

tethering app i'm using - Wifi Tether for Root Users version 3.2-beta2 ****BETA**** (note, not the "wireless" one, but the "Wifi" one)

xbox 360 configure network settings all set to "AUTOMATIC"

used a "crossover" cable NOT a ethernet cable!

entered in all the settings the OP said!

side note....after i did the test xbox live connection and everything was good too go, i turned off xbox, and took crossover able out and replace with normal ethernet cable as that is what i had running through my walls (clean install) and turned xbox back on and had no issues....BUT, u must set everything up and test connection with CROSSOVER cable 1st! i tried with just ethernet cable to start and no luck, as soon as i did everything with crossover cable, worked like a charm and then went to ethernet cable...don't ask why it works/worked that way, i don't know....main thing is follow the OP instructions to a "T" and should work for u!

the new gears of war judgement tells u on the main menu when your trying to find and play an online game what your NAT is.....b4 was yellow moderate, now is a green OPEN.....thanks again OP!
[Android General] Zacharybinx34:
I did all of this and still when doing the network test it says,

"There's a problem with your connection. Select More Info for a description of the problem and how you can fix it"

Then when I do it says,

"IP Address Error

Unplug the power from the router or modem for 30 seconds. Reconnect the power, and wait another 30 seconds."

When I turn on the XBox it will sit and do the circular thinking icon on my lan network like it's trying to configure - but with a crossover shouldn't it be NOT doing this?

I attached the following images of my setup. And I am using a crossover cable. Once upon a time this worked for me, but now it no longer does. No idea why.
[Android General] rock_drummer08:
I tried all of this above with a galexy s3 and pda net tethering. I used a cross over cable to the xbox and it is still not working I am getting a NTU error when trying to connect to xbox live. But it will connect to the network and internet on the xbox test. I downloaded the program from DSL reports and set the NTU from 1364 to 1500 and it is still now working and giving me a error.
[Android General] Xieon1:
Awesome!

Great, this actually works. Took me a long time to get it working, but I did it.

I'm at a hotel with only wifi, so I'm doing the same thing just w/o the phone as the tether, the laptop is tethering the hotel wifi (makes it faster).
[Android General] Zacharybinx34:
Would you mind walking us through with EXACTLY what you had to do to get it to work? A lot of can't seem to get it to.

Thanks!
[Android General] tpayne2345:
I was able to use this and it gave me an Open NAT (tested using the Live connection test, Halo Reach network settings said Open, and COD also said Open)

I still can't connect to certain people though, which is weird because I can connect to those people through my home network, but it's slow as smoke hence why I'm tethering Verizon 4G

I can play online fine, just can't join chat parties hosted by 1-2 friends.. my setup is Phone tether>laptop w/settings in 1st post>regular ethernet cable>xbox... I found that by not using an ethernet cable, the NAT was still moderate, hope this helps someone
[Android General] shallrd:
Open NAT Rating is Misleading

I am having the same issue. So although this method seems to give you a open NAT I don't think I really does. 4 of my friends and I play together all the time. 3 of us have a strict NAT (tethering to cell phone), if one of our friends with open NAT doesn't join us then we can't connect to each other. I followed this process to open my NAT which passed the Xbox live connection test, but I still can't connect to those friends with a strict NAT. It seems there is still something missing to get rid of the affects of a strict NAT, which seems to be the most difficult with a tethered connection through a cell. Does anyone known how to fix the issue entirely?
[Android General] xAudacityx:
Did you use a crossover cable if your connection is from comp to xbox?
[Android General] Eric4753:
how would I do this on a mac?
[Android General] xAudacityx:
Honestly sir I don't know much about the networking on a mac
[Android General] tpayne2345:
You need to try a crossover cable, it's different than a regular ethernet cable which is what I was using to get the 'fake' Open NAT

Seems that by using a crossover, people have been able to get a true Open NAT
[Android General] jacobwtyler:
IP address of the computer??

I have tried to get this to work a million different ways but it's still saying Strict NAT Type. I know this thread is old but maybe someone can tell me what I should put under the "Name of IP address of the computer hosting this service on your network". I have tried the name of my computer which is PageK and I've tried the IP address listed on MyWi and I've tried the public IP address on whatsmyip.org and I've tried the local IP address of my Wifi card and my LAN card as well as the IP address that Xbox assigned to itself. What IP should I be using??? None of these have worked but maybe I can figure something out once I narrow it down to the correct IP. I'm using Windows 8.1 and iPhone 5 on AT&T and MyWi app. Thanks for any help.
[Android General] xAudacityx:
Experiment with the IP adresses a little, I did the same as you by putting the exact one from my card and it didnt work either.
[Android General] Eric4753:
go to computer and look at the name at the botom are you sure thats the exact name? mine was Eric-PC I only entered eric at first, but it didn't work. Now it does since I changed it
[Android General] Eric4753:
I still can't connect with certain friends. I use a usb thing by netgear to connect to wireless networks. I followed your step and am using a crossover cable. Any ideas?
[Android General] Eric4753:
Well I retried everything and am using a crossover cable. I'm still getting a moderate-strict nat type HEre is the exact error message:

W: 0000 - 000B

X: 0600 - F001

Y: 20A8 - 4860

Z: 8015 - 1918

L: 0015 - 10F0

Q: 8015 - 1004

T: Wired

A: 192.168.137.63/255.255.255.0

G: 192.168.137.1

D: 192.168.137.1/0.0.0.0

That is the exact error message I get along with a strict nat I followed all your settings to the letter. Any help would be appreciated
[Android General] Eric4753:

[Android General] Eric4753:

[Android General] tazmaniondvl:
I just tried this on my galaxy exhibit 4g, and i could not be happier!!! No more restricted NAT!!!! Post the steps you took, be detailed. I also deleted the xbox that was already there, and added the xbox 5 with 3074udp
[Android General] touchpropimp:
Just ditch your Xbox and buy a PlayStation product. I've been using the wireless\wifi tether apps for years both ps3 & ps4 I have a strict NAT but it doesn't affect anything. I played DCUO for over a year and was a beast. chat worked perfect. 8player raids even 8 on 8 PvP no lag. Averaged about 75GB a month in data
[Android General] ant6893:
open nat with bridged connection?

is there any way to run open NAT when i have a bridged connection on my PC? USB tether to PC, then bridged connection from PC to ethernet Xbox...
[Android General] AntarniP:
Only tethering to PC, not XBL!

I use my phone tethering (oneplus 2) and connect it to my pc by cable. I get 'ok' speeds and surfing the web is fine, however in video games it tells me I have a strict NAT type, which sometimes doesn't enable me to play with friends, I can't use my mic, and it just generally excludes me from most activities in multiplayer games. How would I change the NAT type to Open instead of Strict? Or even NAT type 2 would be good. I am very new to this so please explain it to me like I'm a child. I very much appreciate all related answers!
[Motorola Droid and Milestone Accessories] CeBits:
I know it has been asked a lot in the past, but searching didn't provide Milestone specific answer.

So If I buy Class 6 or Class 10, will the milestone be able to utilize the full write speed? I am running Cyanogenmod 7 RC0 (latest). At the moment I have 8GB class 4 Apacer microSD and tbh its a terrible card. All I get is 2.5 mb/s write on large files, but I am getting the same speed when the card is in card reader too so its not phone issue.

Thanks.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone Accessories] extrem0:
Maybe I'm wrong, but what I know is that the card class is the limit. It doesn't mean it will read/write at full speed all the time.

How are you testing your speeds?

Maybe SD Speed Increase help you.

https://play.google.com/store/apps/...t=W251bGwsMSwxLDEsImNvbS5zZGluY3JlYXNlLml0Il0.

I don't know how to test my speeds, but were getting 24mb/s read and 8mb/s write speeds in SD Tools ( https://play.google.com/store/apps/...1bGwsMSwxLDEsImFsZXMudmVsdXNjZWsuc2R0b29scyJd ). I'm using a Samsung 16gb Class2. I think the app is not calculating very well. Don't know.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone Accessories] CeBits:
I am using the SD card as USB mass storage instead of carrying separate thumb drive. I transfer a lot of large 1+ GB files.

I tried SD Speed increase last week and it does make a difference on smaller files, but when copying 2GB files it seems to start fast (like a burst mode), but if timed it takes exactly the same time to write something on the card.

I am going to change my 8GB card for 16GB today anyway I just wondered if class 10 is worth getting or should I get class 6 and save some money. Whatever I buy I will report back and test the speed.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone Accessories] CeBits:
I went ahead and bought Patriot LX 16 GB class 10 microSD. Now I get variable speeds from 3.5 mb/s to 8 mb/s depending on the file sizes. As I read somewhere this is due to fact that the phone is using MTP protocol to act as mass storage device.

Anyway with the old card I was topping only 2.5 mb/s no matter the file size, so it's definitely an upgrade and since class 6 was only 5$ cheaper I saw no reason not to buy the faster one, even if the milestone can't utilize its full capability. In the end its an old phone and I believe there weren't any class 10 cards out in 2009 anyway.

And one more thing, the camcorder isnt lagging anymore when recording videos :)

EDIT: After booting in recovery and clearing dalvik and cache partition I am getting 9.5 + mb/s, but it does start around 4.5 mb/s and then rises to its full speed. Cheers.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone Accessories] maango:
Except for the improvements in video recording, is there anything else that runs smoother for you when using the phone?
[Motorola Droid and Milestone Accessories] extrem0:
I think everytime any app need to access your sd, it will be smoother, like gallery, taking photos, loading maps cached in sd, music apps indexing songs, etc. Accessing apps installed on sd card may be loaded faster too.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone Accessories] CeBits:
Thats right. Gallery loads faster, applications and games moved to SD start up faster etc. Don't know about maps, but I suppose they cache faster too.

However the main difference is when copying stuff to phone in mass storage mode. Thats why I got a higher class card in first place. While all other stuff related to reading from SD do seem snappier, the difference is not all that great since even Class 2 cards can read with high speed, but when it comes to apps that are writing the difference is obvious.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone Accessories] Eiertschik:
I'm using a Samsung Essentials 32GB Class 10 Card.

Gave me some troubles at first, something with sector sizes seemed wrong - but after formatting it with this tool https://www.sdcard.org/downloads/formatter_3/ it worked.

Someone in these forums suggested the tools - search for the link to find the recommended settings.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone Accessories] maango:
Alright, thx for the answer. For someone not using the phone the same way as you, do you think it would be worth the money to get a faster card?
[Motorola Droid and Milestone Accessories] CeBits:
The difference between class 6 and class 10 right now is only few bucks. I don't see why not. You never know, may come in handy.

Here check this out, less then 1$ difference in price.

16GB microSDHC CARD Class 6 - Transcend

16GB microSDHC CARD Class 10 - Transcend

I wouldn't go below class 6 since the camera is lagging when recording videos.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone Accessories] Alva Clipton:
Is it true that if a formatted microSD often will make it slow microSD? :confused:
[Motorola Droid and Milestone Accessories] Eiertschik:
It' unlikely, but possible.

My Samsung Essentials 32GB Class 10 card gave my Milestone hiccups at first (rebooted several times when powering on, rebooted every time I left USB mass storage mode) so I re-formatted it using these instructions: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=23494134&postcount=7417

Now everything works fine and I still get a little more than 10MB/s when copying movies via USB - so no loss here.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] MK17:
I believe it would be good to have a thread where people post if they have received their dongle or not. The idea is to post the status of your dongle (submitted,shipped,received), the date submitted, the color (Amethyst/Champagne) and your country (US, UK, etc...) to give an idea about how the dongles are being distributed.

I would have made this a poll , but I know the information would change to frequently.

Here are a few do's and don'ts...

DO post in this format "Submitted - April 16 - Champagne - US"

DO post an extra line of information that makes your situation about receiving or submitting for the dongle unique, ONLY if needed. (Example: Noticed the change to shipped on 17th and received dongle on 18th.)

DO NOT fill up the thread with useless comments discussing about how you love/hate the dongle or express your opinions about Asus in any way. There are plenty of other places to do that. Please do that there.

DO NOT post your theories on how Asus is handling there business, particularly relating to the dongle. *Though if you do have factual information from Asus on how this is being handled feel free to PM me and I will add it to the original post*

Thank you and hopefully we can use this to help people get a better idea when they should expect to see it or if Asus has messed up their application.

**EDIT**

Howdy again!

I have decided to take down my original graphs because they are no longer up-to-date and I also do not have the time to go through the thread to update them (if someone else wants to I'll put them here). I do think that this has been very useful to Prime owners and still is useful by just following the thread.

It seems to almost be a bit random on when you are going to get your dongle. Fortunately Asus has started to ship the Champagne dongles out as well!

Also, I wanted to answer one question I have seen a lot.

Credit to KiNG OMaR for screenshot.

If you see this you do not have to worry. I believe that almost everyone sees this and I did as well. I did not stop the dongle from being shipped.

Happy Dongles to everyone, and feel free to quote your original post when your status gets updated.
