I know about nat but even when the router reports zero ports being forwarded on firmwares past 388.9-2 and games report moderate Nat as a direct reason ie upnp isnt working doesnt that tell you something? Just load up a game and check? Torrent clients also show the port being forwarded for me in...
Err your nat type is directly affected by port forwarding/upnp.
If my nat type is moderate, this is directly related to this when I have a public facing ipv4. Im not sure why you think they aren't directly related? Can you elaborate further please because if you think there's no issue with upnp...
Go and load a game up in Windows that shows nat status. Fresh installed firmwares with a wipe and upnp switched on doesnt do anything. Extensively tested and the outcome is as it was months ago when merlin enabled igdv2 in his firmware. Playstation will work fine as its not windows.
Well hate to be the bearer of bad news but I own and currently use an ax86u on windows and latest firmware be it from asus or merlin upnp does NOT work for gaming or xbox with upnp switched on.

On a fresh wiped install of this fw, enabling upnp does nothing for gaming lol. Games show moderate Nat. Can anybody else test this on a windows machine please :)
Already tried multiple resets and even another Windows install on another disk. Hopefully somebody else on windows with a fresh install of this beta on ax86u or similar can test using a game.
I've just stayed on a dirty flash from latest non beta to this beta and with upnp already being on its...
Edit: with some testing, 388.9 works flawlessly with upnp. Anything after this including stock with upnp disabled windows doesnt like. Can anybody else do some testing? Specifically with call of duty on pc as any firmware that has upnp disabled by default doesnt seem to work correctly. Upgrade...
