How do I fix strict NAT type on my ps3?

I ve recently connected my ps3 to the Internet for the first time,using my android tablet as a hotspot. I played black ops 2 online for 2 days without experiencing NAT problems ( NAT type was moderate) but as of now my NAT type is strict . Do you perhaps know how I could make my NAT moderate?

    It's a bit complicated, but nothing too technical, however you using a tablet as a hotspot is probably the core of your problem. You need to find a way to adjust the setting of the hotspot, which depending on the tablet can be either easy or difficult. Once you determine how to adjust your hotspot (router) settings and get your PS3's IP address just follow this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PExXds4LKcE

    Easy as pie.

    This seems to work http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1...

    It does say it is for Xbox but the same principle applies for PS3, it does also require a PC but you're still using the hotspot from your phone for then connection.

    It is an extreme tricky thing to do as they default all the ports for you.
