Halo 3 Matchmaking

Re: Halo 3 Matchmaking

My NAT is always Crap but I find games simply.. So it wont be the NAT.

My cousins NAT was 'Moderate' and he could find no games which is why i suggested this. He couldnt find any games until i changed his NAT to 'Open'.

^ How do you get your not to Opened?

Mines always like.. "Restricted" or "closed" whichever is below Moderate.. But I find games pretty quick! With No Lag..

I just realised my broadband speed is 1500/512kbps, thats probably way to slow considering how many people must try to access online multiplayer.

that speed is pretty high where i live, but i suppose most people who play online have 8-20mbps download speed?

Open Your NAT for a Better Xbox Live

I can supply more detailed links if you require them or link to specific router instructions.

Try seeing if you can change your region it searches for games in (unsure if Halo 3 has this feature). If the host is from Europe or US and your in Australia that could cause connection issues with those speeds

Always better to use a wired connection in my experience, wireless is just to damn inconsistent.
