I'm guessing this is trolling, but if you disabled NAT (Network Address Translation), then you wouldn't be able to access the internet through the router. NAT is what converts from a private address to a public address. You would have to plug directly into the modem.

Did you maybe confuse NAT with Universal Plug and Play (UPNP)?

You'd still be able to get online if NAT was enabled on the modem, if that idea feature provided by the ISP. I was simply stating the majority of the time it's because NAT is enabled on more than one device. I probably could have phrased it better., though.

Let's not go flinging around accusations of anybody being trolls okay? If you have a reason to suspect that is the case, flag one of that persons posts, don't make a fuss in the thread. It helps nobody, except the troll (if the person in question actually is one).

The offending posts have been cleaned up, I expect that the following discussion will be civil and not include any accusations of the aforementioned sort.

This topic is closed to new replies.
