A NAT router is a router that supports
the NAT protocol to allow the internal address space to
be independent of the Internet's global address space, and to
provide translation between internal and global address spaces. A NAT
router is a common component of many types
of broadband router.
Connecting through a NAT router to
some games servers is problematic, because the games server relies
on the IP address it sees belonging to the computer
from which the game is being played. Work arounds are
sometimes possible.
