Good news for people with 2 or more Xbox 360's hooked up to the same router, there is another router to add to the small list of routers that will allow 2 or more Xbox 360's to have Open NAT!

I purchased the D-Link DSL-2740B (http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B000FL8NXK?ie=UTF8&tag=xbo360for-21&linkCode=as2&camp=1634&creative=19450&creativeASIN=B000FL8NXK) (ADSL Customers) today without any reviews saying it will or will not work (I had a should work on The Unofficial Guide to Xbox Live), so I took the gamble and it worked :D 2 Xbox 360's both with open NAT. No tweaking or port forwarding was required! Just setup and away you go :)

Here is a list of other routers that should work courtesy of the Unofficial Guide to Xbox Live (http://www.unofficialguidetolive.co.uk/):
