I know Xbox don't like NAT at all. Even just single nat. What I did on my own home router was to turn on upnp on the inside and that solved te "issues" but then my home router was the only nay device and had public ip on it's wan interface (my home router is of course a MT box).

I assume the fix of which you speak was done on the client router and not your core equipment? Ping times from my monitoring position, through a wireless router in my home, out a customer client (I have us set up just like a customer) through my core, back out a sector, to their repeater sector, out their repeater, through a client in the house and finally a switch varies from 4ms to 7ms USUALLY. The client sector facing my tower is set up as a bridge. The repeater connected to it is set up to do DHCP and NAT. The client in the house is set up as a bridge to let the repeater do all the DHCP/NAT. So, there really is only one place the IPs are natted. I will tell him to 1) make sure his firmware is the latest. I think you can just update from the Xbox, tight? 2) to try different games or a different group of users to see if it's the server or not. I guess I never knew the servers were out in other users homes, kinda like P2P or a sort of distributed computing? I guess I thought the Xbox live servers were centrally located.
