So what you're saying is.... If I connect my console via Ethernet cable, I can skip all the DMZ, ISP, uPnP and MAC stuff i don't understand?
Also, if destiny uses a P2P system, why have I never seen the game pause and search for a new host?

Hard wire is the start of the process. put a fixed IP on your console, go to portforward.com and look for destiny ports. It deals with specific routers and gives a good step by step on how to open your ports. Just this will improve your experience in destiny, trust me I'm a doctor :) [spoiler]May not actually be a doctor[/spoiler]

No. I've helped so many friends set up their consoles in the dmz and every one of them noticed a big difference after. All routers come with a reset button in case you screw something up. There are lots of guides online. Most ppl are just too freaking lazy to be bothered with a few minutes of research.

There is some noticeable differences when the host leaves. There are red bars everywhere. It may take 25ms for a change to happen, but there will be a noticeable difference. Everyone has to connect to the new host. Even though we are already connected.
