Your DSL router is also your modem?

If your on DSL, have your ISP bridge or put the DSL modem into bridge or transparent mode. You might need to enter in the username and password into the 655 router Internet/Manual section. This should fix the double NAT issue. Seen this before. It works.

Could also just bridge the 655.

Yeah, none of that worked. Can I even reach nat 1 with a router?

No, you will not get NAT 1 as that is a result code for a direct connection to the modem to a game console. Nat 2 is a result code for a router connection. Your getting a correct code for using a router.
