Optimizing NAT Type by Configuring UPNP/DMZ Method to Improve P2P Success Rate
Update Date:2026-03-06 14:44:00
#1. Transfer Mode Introduction Aweseed remote networking automatically judges the transmission mode by default. If the network environment quality at both ends of the networking members is higher, the success rate of getting through P2P is higher, and P2P success can realize point-to-point direct connection. The networking access speed is not limited by Aweseed and depends on the network bandwidth between both ends; If P2P cannot be opened, the communication between the two ends is transferred through the Aweseed server. Different networking service levels have different forwarding bandwidths (please stamp here for details).
This article describes how to optimize the NAT type by configuring the UPNP/DMZ method to improve the success rate of P2P and further optimize the network access speed.
#2. P2P Promotion Tutorial The difference of network line NAT directly affects the success rate of P2P. In the process of equipment connecting to the Internet, the fewer network devices in the middle, the better, and the reduction of multi-layer routing. Network environment quality ranking: excellent public network> DMZ public network> mapping public network> full cone> IP restriction type> port restriction type> symmetric type. It is recommended to optimize the dialing method or the router to turn on DMZ/UPNP (choose one of the two, not both at the same time) to achieve better NAT.
* * In dial-up Internet access mode, when there are few networking devices, it is recommended to use the Aweseed router to connect to the optical cat LAN port, and the optical cat opens DMZ or UPNP, which is the simplest and most effective networking mode.**
Promotion Elements: If the Aweseed device can directly obtain the public network IP, the P2P success rate is the highest; If it cannot be obtained directly, the closer to the public network IP, the higher the P2P success rate.
2.1 level adjustment
If in the original network environment, the dial-up device is an optical cat/modem, and the Aweseed is a secondary router; Then the adjustment scheme is to modify the optical cat/modem to * * [bridge mode] * *, and the Aweseed router is broadband dial-up internet access.  Note: After adjustment, the Aweseed router can obtain public network IP networking to improve the success rate of P2P. The adjustment method of bridging mode can be consulted with broadband operators.
2.2 function adjustment
In the following three cases, DMZ mapping can be set in the upper-layer router or UPnP function can be enabled to improve the P2P success rate. (1) Install the computer host that logs in to the Aweseed software client; (2) The original network level cannot be changed, Aweseed the router is not a first-level dial-up route; (3) The Aweseed hardware used does not support broadband dial-up networking (such as bypass boxes, serial servers, etc.). 
Note: Only one of the two functions of DMZ and UPnP needs to be set; if it is in a multi-layer network structure, it needs to be set layer by layer.
Through testing and research on a variety of routers, we summarize the methods of configuring NAT/UPNP/DMZ for your reference.
