@Kevin_Brehm, sorry to hear about your issues on getting ARC configured.

he diagnostics you’ve provided suggest that UPnP is not properly configured on your router.

Please first try the following steps:

1. Try to enable UPnP/NATPMP in the web administration interface for the router directly upstream from your Core, and on the FiOS router
2. Try to manually open the port both your routers’ port forwarding configuration
3. Make sure the IP/Port matches the Port listed in Roon → Settings → ARC
4. Check for any VPNs or Firewalls that might be interfering
5. Check if your can can configure your FiOS modem in Bridge mode, or the R9000 in Bridge mode

Hi @Kevin_Brehm,

The error status MultipleNATFound could have 2 reasons:

1. you have more than 1 router in your setup
2. Your ISP is using CG-NAT

My question is, is the Nighthawk R9000 the only router or do you also have a router provided by your ISP?

If you also have a router from your provider, can you set this device in bridge mode?

Kind regards,

Maarten.
