Hi all

Is anyone else getting this problem with COD4 multiplayer? I haven't been able to get invites to games working for 2 days now, everytime I accept a game invite this error message comes up, I don't seem to have a problem joining random multiplayer sessions as usual though

could be your NAT status, check it's open in the dashboard network tests, and if not you might need to forward some ports on your router

thanks mate, some extensive googling has revealed this could well be the issue, expecially as I have a belkin wireless router

It's not error 33 is it?

I had it when I was with Pipex. If it is Error 33 you're getting, it's likely to be your ISP traffic shaping... :/

Righty then - checked my NAT setting and it said 'moderate', checked my router settings, added the XBOX ip address to the DNZ

rebooted both

NAT settings now shows as 'open'

I 'think' i'm sorted...
