Setting up NAT type through Google Nest Wifi through a NBN box for online gaming

M_Monarch — Thu, 24 Feb 2022 03:59:17 GMT

To whoever it may concern,

Recently I got myself an NBN internet box with the Google Nest Wifi. We set it up and going on anything online works perfectly fine and it all connects fine. However, I went to play online from my Nintendo Switch and got the error that the NAT type made it hard to connect to other people.

I researched and found a couple stuff here and there, but I'm still not sure how to connect it exactly since my switch needs a NAT type A or B to work well where my one is Type C. I've already bridged the 2 Google Nests that aren't connected to the NBN box, but the Nest that is connected to the NBN box isn't and it says on the Google Home app that 'It's ben automatically set' and it wont let me change it at all.

Is there anything I can do to help with this connection? And if so, could I please get the step by step instructions in an easy to read manner since I'm not skilled at all in this area.

Thank you so much for your time
