Did he try the same on his end? It could be his end? If either of you can plug directly in that might help too.

I can't plug in directly. He isn't allowed to switch to DMZ mode but both of us are able to play virtually everyone else without problems. My only issue other than this was with Miggy.

My connection is perfectly fine and I only get this issue with certain people, only when inviting via. Player Hub. Every quick-ranked match seems to work for me.

I'm very annoyed and pissed off now. What if the deadline has passed for this round and we still are yet to play the 2 legs...:no:

Can you play from one of the lobbies?

Also, can you plug directly in?

I have wired connection, according to the Network settings on the PS3. It's through the router that's all.

ZyXEL PL-100 PowerLine Ethernet Adapter, that's what I'm using.

I'm going to flip in a second. I guarantee if Original? and I try to play, it'll be fine. Quick matches always work. I'm still reading as NAT Type 2 as well.

Why don't you both play someone else and who ever gets the better result goes through? For example, both play Miggy (Barcelona) and if Sweey loses 2-0, but RB14 loses 1-0, RB14 goes through.

EDIT: Probably not best to play someone who's involved in the tournament. Conflict of interest and all that.

Just found this on the EA site -

Q: Sometimes when I match up to someone ( In a head to head game type.. i.e. Quick ranked, unranked, FIWC, online league, Interactive league, etc ) the screen shows both sides as my favourite team, and I'm only able to change the team if I'm on the home side. Eventually, the session ends and I'm booted from the session. Why does this happen?
------------------

A: When you match up with someone through our centralized server, you then establish a direct peer to peer connection with your opponent. This p2p connection establishment process needs to navigate any firewalls, routers, and other network devices between you and the opponent. This process is difficult and is highly dependant on the type of routers used by both parties, and how they have configured their port forwarding and routers. The best solution to this problem is to make sure you have a UPnP capable/Xbox live compatible router, and that you open the right ports to your ps3 or xbox. I believe there is a sticky about how to do this properly. If not, I'll see if we can get one up.

Side note: You may have noticed that this is much more frequent in head to head matches than it is in online team play or clubs matches. This is because online team play and club matches connect to an EA hosted game server, and do not need any type of port demangling or other fancy process to establish a connection. ( Since the server is on a dedicated public internet ip address (no NAT) and the right ports are opened on the server side. )



I think you both need to do the port forwarding thing.

Take a look here and see if it helps:

Good luck

I must note though that I do get more lag with you than most and seem to get pauses at frequent intervals.

Can you get online now? I want to test how long it takes us to connect and be able to select teams while I switch settings around - if you've time to waste :>
