Code: 
Solution 1: Restart your network equipment
1. Turn off your Xbox 360 console and network hardware (for example, your modem and router). 2. Wait 30 seconds. 3. Turn on your modem and wait for it to come back online (approximately one minute). 4. Turn on the next piece of hardware (for example, a router), and wait another minute. 5. Repeat step 4 for every additional piece of network hardware. 6. Turn on your console, go to My Xbox, and then select System Settings. 7. Select Network Settings.8. Select Test Xbox LIVE Connection. If you still receive a NAT warning, please try the next solution.
Solution 2: Turn on UPnP on your network hardware
Universal Plug and Play (UPnP) is a standard that helps routers communicate effectively. If your router or gateway supports UPnP, make sure this setting is turned on.

Please refer to your hardware documentation for help turning on UPnP. Most hardware manufacturers have Web sites that include support information.

If you change the UPnP setting on your network hardware, restart your hardware and test your Xbox LIVE connection.

If you still receive a NAT warning, please try the next solution.

Solution 3: Simplify your setup
Your router or gateway might be having problems sharing an Internet connection. To see whether this is true, try simplifying your setup.1. If you have a wired connection: Temporarily unplug everything from your router, except the cable to your modem and the cable to your Xbox 360 console.
or
If you have a wireless connection: Temporarily turn off everything that's connected to your wireless network except your Xbox 360 console. 2. Test your Xbox LIVE connection (on your console, go to My Xbox, select System Settings, select Network Settings, and then select Test Xbox LIVE Connection).If you do not receive a NAT warning after simplifying your setup, it suggests that the router is having problems handling multiple connections. To try to fix the problem, please go to the next solution.

Solution 4: Open network ports
Your network hardware or firewall might be blocking communication with the Xbox LIVE servers.

If you're connected to a network through your workplace or a college, ask the network administrator to open the following ports:•TCP 80 •UDP 88 •UDP 3074 •TCP 3074 •UDP 53 •TCP 53 If you’re not connected to a workplace or college network, you need to open network ports on your network hardware. Opening ports can be a little challenging, but the following information will get you started.
Part 1: Switch to manual IP settings
Before opening ports on your network hardware, we need to get the IP settings from your computer and then use those IP settings on your Xbox 360 console.
To get your computer’s IP settings
1. On your computer, click Start, type cmd, and then press ENTER.

Note If you’re using Windows XP, click Start, click Run, type cmd, and then press ENTER.

2. At the prompt, type ipconfig, and then press ENTER. 3. Find your network connection (for example, look for something called "Local Area Connection" or "Wireless Network Connection"). Write down the numbers for the following items: •IPv4 address (or IP address) •Subnet mask •Default gateway

4. Make up a unique IP address for your Xbox 360 console and write it down. For example, add 10 to the last number of your computer’s default gateway address. (For example, if your computer’s address is 192.168.1.1, use 192.168.1.11 for your console’s IP address.)Note Each IP address on your network must be unique.

Now let’s set your console’s IP settings.
To set your Xbox 360 console’s IP settings
1. On your console go to My Xbox, and then select System Settings. 2. Select Network Settings, and then select Configure Network. 3. On the Basic Settings tab, select IP Settings.4. Select Manual. 5. Select IP Address.6. Enter the unique IP address that you made up, and then select Done. 7. Select Subnet Mask, enter your computer’s subnet mask, and then select Done. 8. Select Gateway, enter your computer’s default gateway, and then select Done. 9. Select Done.10. Press B on your controller and then test your connection again.
Part 2: Open ports on your router or gateway
Now let’s open ports on your router or gateway, so that your network hardware can communicate with the Xbox LIVE servers (this is also called "port forwarding").
To open ports on your router or gateway

1.Start your Web browser
In the Address bar, type the default IP address for your router or gateway, and then press ENTER.

Here are the default IP addresses for a few router or gateway manufacturers.ManufacturerDefault IP addressBelkin 192.168.2.1Cisco/Linksys 192.168.1.1DLINK 192.168.0.1Netgear 192.168.0.1 or 192.168.1.1If your manufacturer is not listed above, refer to your documentation or your hardware manufacturer's Web site for help finding the default IP address.3. Type your user name and password (for your router or gateway), and then click OK.

Note If you do not know the default user name and password, refer to your hardware manufacturer’s documentation.4. Once you are logged in, you should see your router or gateway's configuration page.5. Open the following ports:•Port 88 (UDP)•Port 3074 (UDP and TCP)•Port 53 (UDP and TCP)•Port 80 (TCP)A resource that might help you open ports on your router is http://www.portforward.com. Click the following link and then find your router:http://www.portforwa...ve_360index.htm (http://www.portforwa...ve_360index.htm) If your router is not listed on the Port Forward Web site, contact your Internet service provider or router manufacturer for help with opening network ports.

GOOD TO KNOW

How does NAT affect online gaming?
When you have a NAT warning, you might experience the following symptoms: •You cannot hear a certain a player within a game or someone cannot hear you. •You cannot join a party or your friend cannot join your party. Some things to be aware of: •NAT problems do not affect game play speed. A NAT warning affects the ability to connect and communicate with other players. •You should not experience a NAT warning if you are using a wired modem connection. •If you are using the network at your workplace or college, there is a good chance that you are behind a proxy server or firewall, which is why you are experiencing NAT issues. Contact your network administrator for help. •If you’re using hardware that is compatible with Windows Vista or Windows 7, NAT issues should not occur.

my routers fuckin gay and ports wont stay open for long, had loads of trouble when I used to be active on HF..
 
Mines been strict on PC for like 4 weeks, I've done everything possible to open it. I'm about to buy a new router because any game I join is fucking African hosts downloading 500 TB of gay porn.

If MW3 has the same matchmaking and I have the same problem I'm pulling a sony on IW and hitting them off until they fix the problem -.-
