Following that advice with the UFiber ONU as a router definitely broke
Internet for everything except the customer's Nintendo.

I would have thought so, but maybe it depends on the router.

I didn't realize that would happen with port forwarding, but
that makes sense. but to be fair, the people at Ubiquiti are
probably assuming you'd be forwarding to a router and there
wouldn't be any other devices.
I guess the Nintendo people just assume no other devices are
important...

Correct. DMZ does not break the Internet access for all
other devices.
Forwarding ports 1 through 65535 to a single device as
suggested by some insane people at Nintendo and Ubiquiti
will break the Internet for all other devices.

DMZ does not break the internet access for all other
devices behind the NAT. DMZ ip is where the unsolicited
packets will be forward. Solicited packets with a
matching NAT state will be forwarded on to the original
host.

This breaks the Internet for all devices except the
one you forwarded ports to.

Isn't that basically the same thing a DMZ does?

Oddly enough here's "UI-Team" on the Ubiquiti
forum proposing the same thing as a solution for
a "DMZ"

Insane.

Agreed, but apparently doesn't work when the
router is a UFiber ONU.
I'm more amused at Nintendo's suggestion. One
of our tech support guys actually tried it and
it broke the customer's internet on all devices
that weren't the switch.

Consoles should never need port forwarding.
Enable UPnP on the router and you're done.
