While using Belkin router a problem in translating the public IP address to the private one and vice versa is one of the frequently reported issues. The Network Address Translation (NAT) capability of Belkin is quite important to keep private IP address secure from others. In case you are facing any NAT issues with Belkin router, then the following information with troubleshooting steps will be of great help to you.

Network Address Translation (NAT) refers to the capability of router for translating any public IP address to any private IP and vice versa. In case, your Belkin router is unable to efficiently perform Network Address Translation, then you will come across any of the NAT issues.

Soon as the ports will be set to OPEN, the type of Network Address Translation will be set to Open or Moderate mode other than the strict mode. So if the ports are kept open then users will not face any NAT issue while using gaming consoles for playing games online.

Now, before trying to open the ports you will have to configure the IP address settings of your gaming console as Static then only you will able to go through the port opening procedure.
