Can you play MVP online with a DSL connection?

Everytime I try to play another person I get the can't connect to other user messager. I know in Tiger Woods05 you can only play against others if you had a cable connect cause EA didn't encode for DSL..

Tiger Woods was fine over DSL.

As is MVP.

You may have a port blocked on the modem or router (if you use one).

TW was NOT fine over DSl if you didn't have a router. If you had your PS2 do the PPPOE for you.....nadda. It didn't work online. You could connect and everything BUT you couldn't connect peer to peer. Trust me on this one. I tested it BOTH ways!

Also this was for Ps2, As I didn't have my Xbox then.

Cool. Thanks guys.. I got 2 games in MVP after 14 tries..But only via quick match.. & my other EA games work fine online.. EA even said they 'forgot' to encode DSL for TW05. This was a big issue on TW05 forums.. Maybe EA fixed the problem. Don't know..
