Strict NAT.
Some Netgear routers have some issues it seems.
I will bring up my router settings later today, maybe a Guru can take a look?

All the right ports are opened to the correct host? Your Xbox have a Static IP address? That should work... 

Not sure what to do now?

Never had problems with a static IP here. George, if you have the port forwarding setup -- and your Xbox grabs a different IP (because of DHCP) than you've forwarded the ports for -- there's your problem.

How do I make the Xbox static?
Simple terms please?
Can't find any screenshots with the NXE. Just give it an address > .10 or so. I think I gave mine .50 (192.168.x.50) Then forward the same address in the router.
