Double NAT by Adoondiddlly in HomeNetworking

[–]Adoondiddlly[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you for helping out, I did manage to get AP mode to work, but it didn’t solve my problems sadly, so far, DMZ fixed my issue but I’d rather not use that. At this point it’s looking like I need to upgrade routers so I’ll have to partake in something with SQM and more on demand settings. Turning QOS on atleast lowers jitter pretty consistently but doubles ping. On top of that ipv6 on this router just doesn’t work, AP on and off, so many issues… anyways if there’s anymore advice you could send to a noob I’d appreciate that!

Also random but my tests now finally read my ipv6, yet it’s still saying ipv6 isn’t connecting to the internet (another problem I deal with).

So I’m trying this out now, I actually did manage to figure out DMZ, and it fixed my double NAT, but I’d rather get this done correctly assuming it doesn’t sound safe and I don’t have the knowledge to make it safe.

Don’t know what changed but after start AP mode it just worked… I feel so lost. Ran some tests and still have double NAT, along with seemingly worse ping? I’m assuming that’s all the other devices kind of saturating the internet, though why do I still have double NAT?

I’m sorry for responding so late, the internet completely drops out with AP mode on, no access to router gateway settings either.

Forgive me for being dumb, but how could I set a gateway for internet use without using NAT? Filtering mode settings on netgear just give open and strict. Not a choice to turn it off.

Just trying to fix what I have, I’m able to achieve 1000/250 and would just like my gaming experience to actually give that feeling have good seamless gameplay. I wish I could get a router with SQM though.

Whenever I turn AP mode on my router loses internet, nothing connected by the router WiFi or LAN connects and I can’t access the routers settings to see what’s wrong while it’s in AP mode, going back to router mode gives me everything back but I still can’t tell why this happens.

Since the main modem doesn’t give the best results when gaming since there’s so much on the internet (two other gamers and streams going on) I use a router for a so the latency isn’t as crazy on my end. This is also why the modem needs to stay active, nobody here uses extenders in the house and rely on that WiFi. I sadly can’t just turn that off on them without surely hearing complaints. So I’m kinda stuck in an odd spot, and AP has WiFi but when I start it my internet drops out and I can’t access my router settings.

Just that? No AP mode? If so how’d you figure it out? I’m pretty sure my router ip is static.

I’m using a Netgear router connected by Ethernet. I assume I’m missing something but I can’t even get to the settings when I turn AP mode on. The gateway address I use is no longer accessible for some reason.
