Black Ops connection problems with 2 PS3's on same router.

    Looks like the black ops servers connect differently than MW2 with the PS3 console. :(

    We have two PS3's both on strict nat 3 wired to the same router. When playing MW2 both consoles can go online and have a game no problems at all.

    With Black Ops though if one console is on then the other one can't get into online play. It's actually stopped from even trying to find a match. Yuo get as far as pressing x for team deathmatch and nothing happens. Turn off the first console and console 2 can then connect and play as normal but when console one is turned back on it is frozen out from online play.

    Just wondering has anyone else expereienced this issue ?

    I know there are ways to get Nat 1 / 2 on the PS3 console but from what I can see this will get it on one console alone at the expense of the other console. Any suggestions very welcome !

    Yep privacy set to open.

    What I have noticed though is that there is a system info page when you press select on the options screen and this specifially states your external IP address. I'm beginning to think it locks that IP address dowm communication wise with the first console on. Second console has the same IP address and it blocks it ???

    Again this isn't an issue with MW2 and indeed every other game ever attempted to be played at same time. Very frustrating. :(
