Changing nat from standard when using two nest routers

[garr3ttwashere]

I have been having issues connecting to multiplayer in some games due to having moderate nat. When I go into to change it the settings I am unable. Any advice? Trying to make it where my wife and I can play destiny together.

You should put the ISP equipment in bridge/bypass mode to avoid double NAT. More info on why:

Nest Wifi mesh/wireless backhaul won't work if you bridge Nest Wifi.

Hi folks,

I appreciate you sharing this helpful information, @olavrb.

@garr3ttwashere, thanks for posting. Like olavrb said, putting your Google Nest Wifi router on bridge mode will disable most of its features, including creating a mesh network. Let me know if you have additional questions or concerns so I can further help.

Regards,
Lovely
