Connecting to rooms in Ridge Racer

c7

Ok so anytime I try to connect to any room online I get a message saying "Failed to enter room". I think it could be to do with my router/connection settings. Using a Netopia router with eircom. Strange thing is I don't have a problem surfing the net on the console or using the store. Here are some details:

you probably have to forward the correct ports to the ps3 or enable upnp

the ports should be on the sony web site

did u fix the problem? i had the same problems and fixed it myself yesterday, no thanks to a router manufacturer who had me on the phone for 3 hours and couldnt fix it.

maybe a sticky is in order??? cuz this is a really common problem with the PS3 and wireless routers
