I was playing multiplayer last night, and it "soft" froze after completing Bomb de Base II. But the odd thing was the freezing seemed to be game related. I could quit out of the room and get re-invited back in. But the screen just didn't want to get past the summary page. 360 version. My buddy Paul has had the game "hard" freeze on him a few times. His 360 has been returned recently (RROD). No other game does it. I will tell him to unplug is network stuff to test.
Played with PSN on today, no freezes, but i keep getting kicked out of multiplayer games.
The multiplayer setup is pretty... stupid.. if you want a solid game i would suggest you make one yourself, in order to do that you have to reserve one spot for a friend. At least that is true in the free mode.
I have closed nat, mostly because where i live now we got a piece of **** belkin wifi router and some moron changed the default router password (to get acces to router stuff) and i have no idea what its changed to.
I tried reseting the router but default password still doesn't work.

I think the default password is actually empty?
Nope, its supposed to be MiniAP according to belkin. Tried blank, tried admin, and MiniAP nothing works.
Edit: I fixed it without going through the belkin thing. To my amazement my otherwise completely moronic ISP has done one thing right, and i could select NAT settings by going to this special site their made, where i could choose 2 setups (one with "filters" one without, choosing the one without filters opened up NAT), got a NAT type 2 now on the PS3 =)
Not in my wildest dreams did i think that the ISP could change nat settings remotely, but apparently this ISP puts your NAT to strickt by default.
(The reason i call my ISP for morons is because their help support managed to send me 3 new DSLmodems when my internet cable was physically cut (and i told them this) before they sendt a repair guy)

What are the details of your setup? You might not need any ISP information if your router is connected to a cable or DSL modem. The modem contains the necessary info, and the router will likely be assigned an IP through DHCP from your ISP (unless you happened to order a static IP). In which case resetting your router shouldn't be an issue.
Good news for us PS3 owners. Can FINALLY play multiplayer. Now I just have to get past the chore of trying to join a game with a friend!

Anybody else finding multiplayer laggy?
I got 5mbit upload but every game has rather severe lag if you look for it.
(oh and whats with everybody using auto-aim enabled on multi, that makes the game pointless imo)
