Router setup for xbox 360
Hi
Have Netgear Router DG834 with cat5 to server, running SBS 2003. This is connected to switch. Off the switch I have an Access point Linksys WAP54G. Laptops, xbox live and PS3 run of this.
Xbox live (Wireless) has NAT issue - NAT type is moderate. Playing online is inconsistant. Can't hear other players or join with other players etc
Can anyone provide me with an idiots guide to ports, IP addresses, static or dynamic etc. I have contacted xbox helpline and looked through forum after forum...... lots of views!!!
My son (honest!!) would be very grateful!
Cheers Jon

Netgear Router DG834 v4
Linksys WAP54G v3 (thats on the setup software, on the box it looks like 2.1 or 3.1, eyesight not too good!!)
Both are relatively new.
Will try the wired link to xbox tonight. Have tried that before I changed all the settings with limited success.

Not the solution, but helped me narrow down the problem.
It'll do no harm to set up port forwarding as thiagotietze mentions, this is the long version of the step-by-step guide on how to do that::
