If you have more than one device connected through the speedtouch then NAT is rather essential so that your packets are sent to the right place.

Perhaps port forwarding would be the way to go.

Stick it on the Multi IP template.

However if you only have 1 IP then you will either need another NAT connected or only one device can go online as it would have your external IP directly.

Have you checked UPNP is on and tried rebooting the bebox usually the 360 will open ports it needs via UPNP.

Also could always try a different router if you have one.

Personally I use a Netgear DG834v4 Bridged (modem only) to a WRT160N running DD-WRT

Although I have in the past used the 585v7 bridged to a WRT54GL (Then the netgear > wrt54gl)

I seem to like changing routers fairly regularly
