NAT Issues when playing games on two computers

I followed the steps exactly and it was perfect except for one thing which messed me up. After the last step, I had to go to Diagnostics > States. I filtered for my Xbox static IP and then I had to Kill the states. Without doing that it kept the old states and kept showing NAT type strict.
you're absolutely right...
since, I always restart (NGFW) when such a configuration change (greater extent) is made, I forgot to describe it -

(on the same sub-net)So,
If I follow your guide I would still get the warning when playing D2 on the PC? What would I need to adjust in order to get rid of that warning?
Thanks,

Hi,
It depends on the philosophy of the different game manufacturers...
in general it can be said that there is no problem based on Linux (FW), but here and with D2 this has not been solved yet
there is an initiative for it, this will perhaps be a result in 2.5:

Ah,
I see. Well, hopefully, they will provide a resolution.

Are you still facing the same issue or you recovered?
It's still an issue for myself and playing Destiny 2.

@jailbird4 I just play with strict NAT types now. Obviously just a limitation of the software. Software which I didn't pay anything for, so I'm not too worried about it lol

As I did a quick visit the last weekend with our youngest in D2 I can't find any problem even when not having pure NAT. We've played with two PS4s with both NAT Type 2 (not strict/3 but not pure/1 either) without a hitch. Got together, got into PvE/PvP - don't see problems.
