Steps to Fix NAT Type on Cisco Router

NAT is the short form of Network Address Translation and it is used by the router to divide one IP address in multiple. There can be 3 types of NAT issues i.e. Type open, Type Moderate and Type Strict. While you connect a system to the internet through a router, you will notice that the computer shows too many IP addresses. When you use Cisco Router with NAT capability, then it will serve as a middleman between the internet and the connection. If there is an issue with the NAT, then you will not be able to connect. Don’t worry Cisco Tech Support is there to help you.


Steps to set NAT properly:


  • Go to Cisco router’s settings. Connect your router and open internet browser on your computer. Enter the correct address of your Cisco router. Mostly 192.168.1.1 is the IP address of the Cisco router, but if it doesn’t work, then follow the instructions that came with the router. You will find a sticker with the router which contains the username and default password.


  • No, you need to open port forwarding section. After you are logged in, look for port forwarding option and select it. Scroll down to the settings option. Here you need to change few things to get open NAT setting. Find the UPnP box and activate it.


  • Find the IP address of the system by going to the start button and open command prompt. Type “ipconfig” after opening it. This will show you a list of details and there you will notice IP address.


  • Put your hardware in the router’s DMZ box
