So I have searched and searched to no avail so I had to try and open a new thread.
My problem is when tethering my Evo 3d to my Playstation 3 (without a computer) I get a NAT Type 3 (strict). I can still play online with NAT 3 but with limitations, I can't join in party's with my friends and matchmaking takes some patience. I am looking for some help on how to get an Open NAT Type 2 (Type 2 means connected wirelessly with no problems).
It used to work just fine right after I rooted but then I flashed a new rom (Senseless from scrosler if I remember right) and then it would connect as Type 3.
From what I have read I think it could have something to do with the Kernel but I feel I have tried every combination I could think of. It could also be the version of wifi tether. It could also need some port forwarding... Is there any way to forward ports with any apps while using wifi tether?
Here is my phone specs
Evo 3D
Android version 2.3.3
Hboot 1.5
Rom- Omj's Evo 3D v1.1
Kernel - 2.6.35.10-gcb1cf83 (stock)
Wifi Tether version 3.1-beta8
I have routing fix checked and mss clamping checked.
I am hoping there are some Playstation users out there beside myself that can benefit from any help with this issue. Thank You

Or you can get home internet like everyone else and not have to worry about it at all.
Have you tried another tether app like barnacle?

I have tried barnacle but I couldn't get it to work at all. The PS3 can't connect to ad-hoc and from what I know that's all barnacle can do. Maybe I am misinformed. I could try it again tonight.

I wish I could. . . Broke college student
Man, I had that issue too when I used to tether with my Evo 4G. I never could find an easy way around it. Just had to deal.
It was sad too. My connection was plenty fast.
As I remember, a buddy of mine had to do some hackery to his DSL router to even get that off strict, so I can only imagine it is pretty tough with a phone.
Can you USB tether to a laptop (or desktop), and bridge the connection with the ethernet port, and connect your PS3 to that?
That's what I used to do in Windows Mobile, before wireless tethering was a thing

The thing that gets me is that it used to work absolutley fine. I am trying to figure out what combinations of things might make it work again. ROM kernel WiFi tether version etc... Thanks though!

I was wondering, Do you have a router that you can be flashed with ddwrt? I know you mentioned that you didn't have a computer but maybe go by a friends house for initial setup if your router is compatible?
It might be possible to set up a router as a wireless repeater. It would be
wireless phone signal to wireless router to ps3. This would only prove useful depending
on your current connection speed though. It might be something to look in to. If you do
have a way to set that up I could try to help as much as I could.
I currently use a wireless signal to a wireless router and
have it set up as a repeater.

I have computers at work that I can use to set things up so that wont be a problem. I just don't have one at home to use. I think I could definitely look into that because the logic sounds pretty solid from what I know. I wonder if what ever problem the phone is having would just get sent through to the repeater as well but who knows. I might have to PM you if I decide to go that route and I get stuck.

Even though your speed for dl/ul is really fast, ping times, packet loss, etc are probably what is causing your nat 3 type. Like the other poster said with his evo 4g, there is nothing you can do and will have to live with it. You either have to get a dsl/cable line or be stuck like you are currently.
Okay i have that tether app its the wifi tether v3.1beta6 exact same setup except i have Routing fix uncheck and have MSS clamping check and wifi-driver reload check also check on under Domain-Namesever on preferred DNS its 8.8.8.8 and alternate its 8.8.4.4 an i also have an app called filterproxy installed running. Also when ur doing ur set up on the ps3 disable the UPnP works i have NAT type 2 running check the pic
also if need the filterproxy app here it is

Thanks! I am going to try that as soon as I can. Do you think Roms/Kernels come in to play with getting it to work too? I will try it on the Rom I am running and report back with what I find when I get home and can try it. Are there any specific filterproxy settings I need to set up? I am hitting the thanks button anyway because you have given me some hope.

Man, if this works, I'll thank you every time I see you post. I'm flagging this so I can try it tonight after I watch the Heat beat down the geriatric Celtics.

In the wifi tether app do you have anything checked under device profile? Thanks again.

I tried this method with no luck. Still Nat Type 3. I couldn't get it to work with the routing fixed unchecked either. Did you do the manual set up or the easy set up on the PS3. In your pictures wouldn't the Primary and Secondary DNS have to be the same as what is specified in the Wifi tether app? Something doesn't seem quite right but maybe I am just doing it wrong. Any more ideas would be helpful.

are u using the the same wifi app, device I have it check evo4G
and yes manual set up for ps3 n yes automatic DNS setup, n the UPnP disabled.
I will disabled my filterproxy n try n see if that makes a difference.
hi, is there a kernal or mod or something that i could flash to my s3 to get open nat type on wile tethering my ps3?
i use the stock wifi tether but get strict nat type. i have tried loads of differnt apps. pda does open my nat type but it slows my connection down so bad its unreal. if any one can help me with this i would be greatful.
Is there ANY way to change NAT setting that my phone is using? I've got a v. fast connection and want to use it for online gaming but the NAT type I have now (Strict) does not really let me do that. I've tried Barnacle Tether but it is not working for me... So, any suggestions would be really appreciated as this is important for me.

I believe you can't get open NAT on android. we do not have UPnP so no NAT
I downloaded the app called port forwarder from the playstore and I tried forwarding 3074 udp and tcp I set the incoming port as 3074 and port on target device as 3074. I set the target device to my xbox ip and ive tried every interface and still no open nat please help im using my phone as a hotspot to connect to xbox live and I have a strict nat and I cant connect to some of my friends who also have strict or moderate nat so I really need to open my nat the connections fine no lag really just really need an open nat. Ive seen one of the reviews in the play store for port forwarder says they managed to get open nat for xbox live using it but im unsure wether it doesnt work on my device/my network blocks it or if im forwading it wrong so please can someone help and post a tutorial how to use this app to get open nat on xbox live

Did you figure anything out on this app?
same question
Anyone figure anything out about this??
Hi, I have a question for you guys:
we all know that many providers identify tethering by checking the TTL...
To circumvent that is easy and can be done modifying the TTL with iptables on a rooted phone or just by creating a proxy on the phone itself.
I also found out that if you tether by USB and set on your tethered pc a default TTL of 65, that works too because the TTL becomes 64 on the phone (as normal packets generated on the phone).
My question is this: why the last thing I wrote does not work if I tether using wifi?

It works fine as long as issue these two commands in CMD prompt on your PC, but you still can't share your PC's data connection using Windows Hotspot or Connectify, there's still something else blocking it. If anyone has a solution for that, drop a line please.
netsh int ipv4 set global defaultcurhoplimit=65 store=persistent
netsh int ipv6 set global defaultcurhoplimit=65 store=persistent
If still having problems then disable IP6 in your WiFi or RNDIS adapter under connections (depending if you're tethering through WiFi or USB).
