    Hello lads

    I have a huawei E586 and followed all steps in the open NAT sticky but it still does not open my NAT

    Anyone have experience with this WI-FI modem and setting it up with xbox 360 slim?

    I'm at a loss here, thanks

    I'm not sure if mobile broadband can have a open NAT. I've heard mixed reports from friends that they got it working/ not working.

    i'm not familiar with that 3g modem, but have you: opened all the required ports? set the xbox in a dmz (not sure if able to with that modem)? turn on UPnP?

    Yeah that's the thing...I can complete all steps including dmz and UPnP but it still gives the same error "You are connected to xbox live but NAT is set to strict"

    Even went through the process a couple of times incase I missed a step but each time It ended in the same result.

    Don't find the E586 much good anyway because the area I'm in is too congested. Will probably pop the sim into my E1750 and use that in conjunction with an ethernet cable to get xbox live up and running.

    Thanks anyway.

    Just out of interest, can you open ports on the E586?

    Yes you can open ports on the e586, which I have also done but still can't change the nat type to open. I have also enabled upnp and set it up in a dmz but still no luck.

    Any help would be greatly appreciated
