PS3 Connectivity issues with TL-WD941ND
Model : TL-WR941ND
Hardware Version : V6
Firmware Version :
ISP : Shaw
I recently switched Internet providers. My connection speed prior to switching clocked an amazing Download speed of 121 Kbps and an identical upload. I was connected directly to the modem as it was a basic service and had a Type 1 NAT Type when I ran a connection test on the ps3. After switching Internet providers, my speed on EVERY device connected reaches an average Download speed of 4 Mbps and an Upload speed of around 500 Kbps.My NAT Type has also changed to a Type 2. Even though my PS3 shows these results in it's connection test, when I connect to any game, it has terrible lag, and almost non-existent voice chat. Even the friend list lags while it loads. I have tried both wireless connections and wired connections through the router, and have also tried disconnecting all other devices on the router and the issue persists.I will also mention that every other device on the router runs flawlessly, even with everything running at once. The PS3 is the only device that has this issue.I would like to know if this is an issue with the router or the ps3 itself, or even just a setting on the router that is limiting connectivity.

When I tried port forwarding I got an error message (first picture). And a question about the DMZ, when I enable it, does it open up the router itself or just the device who's static IP is entered (DMZ Host IP Address)
Edit: I just entered a random static IP out of the DHCP range for the picture, but when I tried with the actual IP I got the same message.
