Anyone got problems getting into an online game.
Log in and sit for ages trying to join match or look for other players?

Worked earlier this morning, but all afternoon, sitting in lobby.

over the last week been unable to carry a party into an online game either.

Anyone else got problems or any suggestions?

I don't play zombies, but I did have a go on WaW today and had no problems getting normal multiplayer games. So see if you can get into normal online matches, if you're having the same troubles then the problem is your end, if not then it'll be the zombie mode that's the problem and hopefully someone else here will help you.

Also, have you put your PS3 into a DMZ?

I tried again, and sat for a while in the lobby, but eventually joined a game,
There is no doubt the connection to "game" is not as quick as it has been before.

New to this - whats a DMZ?

It's a static IP for your Ps3/router.

It's easy to set up. I'm sure there's a thread here that explains it.

Basically go into your router, go to the DMZ/Static IP section, put in (for example) 192.168.1.110 ... then go to your Ps3 connection setup, do it manually, then as the IP put in the DMZ IP, in this case it'd be 192.168.1.1

Could only explain it quickly. Have a look for the thread (it may be stickied) or hopefully someone will help you in here. I'll help tomorrow if no one else does.

What's your router make?

Everything went haywire today.

Got in this morning - no problems to bothe Zombies and MW2.
After lunch - the same problems.

Reset my BT Homehub router to its default settings, - F**ked me whole home network up. Got everything started and the IP addresses are in sequence - so no problems.

However the signal says full strength on the hub - but again kicked out of network and game bined.

Spoke to BT they are sending a new hub - they think its the wireless from the hub to my devices.

New hub in a few days, - hopefully it will sort it.

Thanks for taking the time to try and resolve.
