Is it normal for the dhcpv4 to be disabled on the max hub I'm getting addresses from map t but my ipv6 is enabled this is on the sky network part in the router also in the top part it says my router io is that normal

Hi @Troy123

Yes this is normal. The new Sky Max Hub will boot up with both DHCPv4 and DHCPv6 clients enabled, but once it receives a DHCPv6-PD lease with MAP-T options (for IPv4 connectivity), it shuts down the DHCPv4 client as it's no longer required.

Note: this is the DHCPv4 client that runs between your Sky Hub and our network; it is a distinct application from the DHCPv4 server that runs on the LAN, that should still be enabled.

Not sure about that one to be honest, in my experience Xboxes are stubborn, only wanting port 3074.

Your screenshot above shows that you're already on the 1:1 profile, which means you have an entire IPv4 address and ability to use any layer 4 port. UPnP should allow your Xbox to open up port 3074 (both TCP and UDP), unless another Xbox or other device on your network already has. (All Xbox models and generations attempt to use the same port, but only one can have it at a time, so if you have multiple, unplug the ones you're not using, to prevent them claiming the port)

It's strange because I haven't got any that are plugged in apart from the one I'm using but I don't know if it's a hub problem because on the black hub It gives me an open nat and port 3074
