NAT = strict, tried everything

[bALSoFsT33L]

k ive tried absolutely everything to get my NAT to open
ive tried enabling upnp alone, ive tried portforwarding alone, ive tried DMZ alone, ive tried mixing them, no dice!
i need help, i have a NETGEAR WPN824, ive tried everyhting i know and i still get a strict NAT
when i log into my router, it says something about searching for updating firmaware or something, would that help?
