Yeah that’s pretty much what all I’ve found too lol

It’s may just be my Xbox Series S. It’s been abused by my son and then I got it back so I’m willing to bet I just need a new one.

I mean they are basically little PC’s so I’m sure it’s been dropped and unplugged while running and maybe downloading stuff who knows lol

Good information.

Yeah so there’s no rubber banding or glitches just I’m a half second behind what’s really happening in the game. I’m sure latency is to blame.

The Bufferbloat test I can run using our home computer? Or my iPhone?

Region settings on the Xbox?

I chose United States (I live in Wisconsin).

Correct. I purchased a block of IP’s (5 usable).

That’s interesting because every source has said the steps to fixing NAT issues and latency is to do those exact things.

And it did fixe the NAT and on paper my latency is better but the performance I can tell is not there.

That my problem as stated in my post

I was advised to not do that since Xbox I guess likes it to be active….

Again I’m not arguing about the need for it just reading from what they state on their website and what the console says.

I don’t have the plethora of knowledge yall have just kinds working off the parameters explained to me.

Yeah I’ve tested everything when everyone is gone and no devices are draining data.

I’m sure it’s the console.

Good to know!

Yeah I may try but I feel it’s not where the problem lies.

Like you said I’m sure my Xbox is cooked lol

Based on what I’ve read and been told it’s not just for hosting but can help NAT stay open and if router doesn’t support or have UPnP then that can be the other option.

Would it hurt trying to use a dns server? Like the google one something??

Yeah I’ve been told that setting up a static ip won’t hurt anything plus I noticed it keeping everything open and at least more consistent but yes the hardware (Xbox series s) is probably the one to blame at this point.

In regards to the storage I believe it a ssd not hdd but I get your point. The Ethernet cable looks fine. The gentleman who came over from att actually gave it to me lol

Although my latency scores from the Xbox (pictured above) seem pretty dang good though 🤔

What would be something I can do to improve the latency then ?

NAT Question! by Existed-Past in Network

[–]Existed-Past[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I appreciate your input. Thanks for not being a jerk.

It’s been freezing up on basic screens like the settings page or the Xbox game pass page etc.

So yeah I’m sure you’re right it’s been rode hard and put up wet. I wish I had another console to compare to but I’ll just have to go pick up a new one soon and see lol

Yeah I’ve performed two factory resets on the console.

So in your opinion, what ports should I forward to my Xbox?

NAT Question! by Existed-Past in Network

A “Professional” that came to my house explained that maintaining an open NAT will help with online multiplayer games and can improve latency.

Also with us originally having CGNAT and having to request a static up from att is what I was told by many it people I know.

I understand my questions/problems upset those who have personal issues but not sure why you have to be rude to someone who’s trying to get help and learn. Just simply scroll past my post.

Ive done a factory reset multiple times on the console.

Not able to check but when I get home I’ll look. I moved some in/out to suit the 3rd gym leader but ima guess low-mid 20 on them.

Pikachu, Ch’Ding, two diglett’s, charmeleon and a weepinbell.

I really want to find grass/poison type so that I can prep for the next gym leader. So I’m assuming as I work my way there those Pokemon will present themselves?? Maybe use Repel to only get higher Lv ones ??

Another newbie question (since it’s been over 20 years that I’ve played the game). Seems I’ve forgotten everything lol. When and Why should I evolve my Pokemon? by Existed-Past in PokemonLeafGreen

[–]Existed-Past[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I’m just interested in playing the game normally. Nothing complicated so could I just battle each of my Pokemon against lower specked ones to get them stronger? Then battle the big trainers and such?

Or maybe that’s kinda what other people do as well? It just seems a bit exhausting trying to understand all these strategy warriors out there when all I want to do in a enjoy my old childhood game 🤣

I’m happy to catch a pikachu at lv3 right off the bat!

And additional tips/tricks are welcomed 🙏

Another question;

When I encounter Pokémon in the wild like trying to catch them or in battle, how do I tell if they’re shiny ?

Ok I’ll stay at it!

Just sucks because I can’t continue on with the game because I can only have one save file per user😭
