Connecting to online matches "COULD NOT CONNECT TO ALL PLAYERS"

MikeyK · 12-06-2007, 7:35 AM

Recently im having lots of trouble trying to join online matches in most games i have. COD3 being the worst. I try to connect to a game, it searches for ages then says "COULD NOT CONNECT TO ALL PLAYERS". Its not only COD3 though. Its Forza 2, PES6, PGR3. Any pointers as to how i can sort this out? Im on Oranage BB using wireless adaptor, got a good signal strength too.

Hi,

Sounds like a NAT problem.

Go to the sign in test pages under network settings and see what the results say. If it is strict or closed then this is the issue. You will need to change your router settings to have this open.

Check the xbox website for help.

Good Luck
Seb

NAT is open

Try powering your router off/on - my NAT is always open, but still I have to regularly do this, 99% it seems to fix it.

little update - switching the router off then on seems to of helped. I setup a game of COD3 last night myself and my mate said it had 5 star connection strength and all night i could connect to all games perfect. 1 problem im having with PES6 though - whenever i host a game i ALLWAYS get sent back to the start screen midway through a game and it says "connection was severed etc etc". Anyway, had appx 8 games with my mate last night and i hosted 5 of them and each time it did the same. I then asked my mate to host 3 games and it was fine each time with him hosting it.
