Going Through Routers Sucks!

[bigball12]

I hate having to go therough my router with my wireless adaptor! It takes forever to find a game! I will get to the connecting to opponent stage and 1 of 3 things will happen.

1. It will work and go through (Very Rare)
2. It will fizzle out and say to go to the FAQ section.
3. My 360 will freeze and I have to turn it off, and back on again.

I always feel that when the third scenario happens, it can never be too good for my 360. I mean my gosh, they could have just adapted the servers for router play. Same thing will happen when I try to join a team up game, and lets not even talk about that terrible connection mode. Anybody else frustrated with router play?

Maybe your router isn't configured quite right.

I tend to put my 360 in the DMZ of the router, which basically allows all traffic in and out of the ports.

DMZ?

Off topic, but this game has frozen my 360 more than any other game i've had, and all in less than a month. And I had Saint's Row.

It's a setting in most routers that lets one computer/device completely bypass the router's firewall. You should search your brand of router and DMZ to see how to set it up.
