You could put your Xbox in the DMZ of the T-Mobile LTE device. This places your Xbox outside of the LTE’s firewall. The 5 G silver cylindrical T-Mobile device doesn’t have this ability yet.

The DMZ functionality on the LTE gateway doesn’t do anything. T-Mobile is 464XLAT for ipv4 and filtered unsolicited inbound for ipv6. That means you effectively always have double nat no matter what.

Have you guys had any luck with this?  I’m having the same issue - its saying Upnp was not successful.  Any ideas would be great!

Not sure which xbox version you have, but on Xbox One X that I own, I go into the network settings and click test NAT. Repeat the process until it detects things correctly. I did not try party chat with mine, but I did hear others in game lobbies.

Double NAT usually means you have a router connected to another router, and they are not forwarding ports. So, in your case, you are connected directly to a single router, so you are not double natted. You’re just single natted, which can still cause issues.
