Solution to Networking Issues with Hitron CGN3 Modem and Possibly Other Modems
In my previous post ([url=https://www.bungie.net/en/Forum/Post/125223029/0/0/1]click here [/url]) I outlined the steps I took to rectify the issues I have been experiencing with the Hitron CGN3 router provided by my ISP (Rogers). Overall, the Destiny community identified the Hitron CGN3 modem doesn't connect well with Destiny servers, which Bungie agreed with; however, sadly Bungie offered me no solution.
To make a long story short, I believe I found the best way to rid yourself of your networking woes. The solution is to set up bridge mode on your ISP modem and use a secondary router as your gateway. This solution worked for me so hopefully it works for you as well!
[b]NOTE:[/b] This fix is for XboxOne. I'm assuming the same methodology can be applied to other consoles.
[b]Step 1: Get the following equipment[/b]
1) ISP modem/router.
2) Secondary router (I used the Linkysys E2500).
3) Laptop and network cables.
4) Some patience and time (I’m hilarious!).
[b]Step 2: Read and Learn about Network Troubleshooting![/b] (You can skip this step)
1) Read through Bungie's [url=https://www.bungie.net/en/Help/Article/11930]Network Troubleshooting Guide[/url] to gain an understanding what you're doing. Trust me, do this!
2) Read through PortForward.com [url=http://portforward.com/help/destiny/]How to Port Forward Destiny[/url]. This guide will give you all the information needed for your secondary router.
[b]Step 3: View these YouTube videos by ManiSuReal[/b]

[b]Step 4: Fixing Destiny: Bridging your ISP Modem[/b]
[b]1)[/b] Wire the Hitron CGN3 modem and XboxOne into the Linksys E2500 router.
[b]2)[/b] Restore your Hitron Technologies CGN3 modem and Linksys E2500 to its factory settings.
[b]3)[/b] Using your PC, wire into the Hitron modem, open its configuration application, and follow the instructions found at [url=http://www.rogers.com/web/support/internet/home-networking/247?setLanguage=en]Rogers.com[/url] to turn bridge mode on.
[b]4)[/b] Using your PC, wire into the E2500 Linksys router and setup your network and Wifi.
[b]NOTE:[/b] Keep your PC wired into the router.
[b]5)[/b] Turn on your XboxOne and select: Settings > Network > Advanced Settings. Write down the XboxOne’s IP address.
[b]NOTE:[/b] Do not power off your XboxOne.
[b]6)[/b] Using your PC, in the Linksys E2500 configuration application, select: Setup > DHCP Reservation. Now, reserve the IP address of your XboxOne.
[b]NOTE:[/b] You’ve just set up a static IP address for your XboxOne, good job!
[b]7)[/b] Using your PC, in the Linksys E2500 configuration application, select: Application and Gaming > Single Port Forwarding. Assign ports 53, 80, 88, 500, 3074, 3544, and 4500 to your XboxOne's static IP address.
[b]NOTE:[/b] Use the configuration that ManiSuReal suggested in Step 3, video 2.
[b]8)[/b] Using your PC, in the Linksys E2500 configuration application, select: Application and Gaming > Port Range Forwarding. Assign ports 7500-17899 and 30000-40399.
[b]9)[/b] Save your router settings, turn your router and XboxOne off, unplug both devices and turn them on again.
[b]10)[/b] Open the Network settings on your XboxOne. The NAT Type should indicate it's Open.
[b]Congratulations![/b] You may have successfully fixed your Destiny connection. This solution isn’t perfect; however, I’m rarely being removed from PvE and PvP games, so it leads me to believe this solution does work. I’m not an expert at networking and I apologize in advance if my technical language is a bit off or if this solution doesn't work for you.
Cheers and best of luck Guardians.
[b]EDIT:[/b] Apparently Rogers has come out with a firmware update that completely resolves the connection issues with the CGN3 modem, without the need to create a static IP for your Xbox One and/or port-forwarding. I haven't confirmed this but once I do I'll report back.
You forgot to include finding dns servers, not as important as forwarding ports but still worth changing. Google "Namebench" on pc, run program and set recommended dns servers through router and all devices (with static ips)
