To increase your NAT type on PlayStation, go to your router settings and enable UPnP (Universal Plug and Play). If UPnP isn’t available, you may need to manually set up port forwarding for the following ports: 80, 443, 3478, 3479, 3480 (TCP) and 3478, 3479 (UDP). Restart your console and router after applying these changes. This typically helps improve your NAT type, resulting in a better gaming experience.
