Hey guys. Have a problem where I can't open NAT for Xbox live.

I have a Dlink DSL-302G, tried to forward the ports (followed this) but it still says strict.
http://portforward.com/english/routers/port_forwarding/Dlink/DSL-302G/Xbox_Live_360.htm

This is the setup...
Dlink DSL-302G -> CNet CNAP-711 11mbps Wireless Router -> Xbox360

I'm been mucking around for a few days trying to open it but it just won't, and I think I read somewhere that with this modem you can port forward but it won't change NAT. So if anyone can help that'd be awesome, otherwise I guess I have to buy another.

Thanks.

Edit: Also, could you guys please suggest a good cheap modem that will work fine?

I can't properly set it in this POS, only as a NAT rule and I tried it (with and without the port forwarding) and it doesn't change at all. Thanks though.

Also, it doesn't have UPnP. Well I ordered that other router, should get here soon and hopefully it will work good lol.
