NAT help

[Benstamania]

Ok... I've been to every walkthrough site out there. I've been to the port forward sides, ect.

No matter WHAT I do, or change, I can NOT get my NAT settings to go to OPEN! I have a buddy that I can NOT game with because of this issue and it drives me nuts. I spent 2 hours trying to fix the situation today and it got me from a "strict" setting to "moderate".

I followed the steps out there... and still I can not get my settings to Open.

I was going to put m y 360's IP outside of the DMZ but I read that it wouldn't be the wisest choice...

So... I guess I'm stuck.

Anyone else know any work arounds?

did you try "test xboxlive connection" that always worked for me

No, but it works fine now at moderate so I'm cool with that I guess.

Thanks though.
