I wanted to post some information here to try and be helpful to the open source community. 

Through much testing and much time I have had with this fine open source router. Resources here and online have been helpful however very little information when it came to Xbox Live on here.  I figured why not help my fellow gamer/open source fan.

Setup

WNR3500L and 4 wired xbox 360's

#1 out of the box with the Netgear firmware worked Open Nat.

#2 WRT  - I went right to Kong build 1500 Open VPN - Moderate  Nat 

I tired everything here upnp really isn't working for me on live.  Plus the manually handling the port forwarding wasn't correct I would open Nat and then they would close all of a sudden.  I believe i remember finally reading the kongs build of WRT had upnp problems.  Across four 360's you can't just DMZ each IP they never support more than one DMZ.  

#3 Tomato Open Nat once Upnp was enabled.  Never any problems on any 360 once enabled.  

I did however notice an improved network bandwidth when it came to media center and kongs build. Especially with HD and mkv formats.

I realize looking up that this looks like a rag on Kong build in fact that was not my intention he's build is great however functionality of xbox live is rather my prioirty in the household I have teenagers and my own halo addiction to feed.

@Atheron!
I got a WNR3500L with the original FW and a 360 connected via the Wi-Fi and all runs fine :) No problem at all with it...

Just got my new WNR3500L, i'm also getting this message when i set up xbox live. I have the latest toastman tomato build on it too. Hopefully this doesn't cause any problems but if you guys did find out how to not get this message, please let me know. :)
