Title: FW 2.02EU PS3 - Problems with the Firewall and EA Nation (NFS shift)
Post by: titan3025 on April 29, 2010, 12:09:44 PM

Hi

I am having trouble with the EA nation when I try to play NFS Shift :( EA Nation kicks me out all the time unless I put the PS3 in the DMZ. Which basically cannot be the answer.

FW Settings on the router are factory default. I did not change anything.

Any suggestions or success with EA Nation and the DLINK 825 router?

Cheers
Markus

I am glad I found this post, as I am having the same problem.
What is less encouraging is that there are no replies... *sigh*
It's super frustrating to be racing online in NFS Shift & suddenly get booted from the PSN ("and possibly EA Nation as well" as the game indicates.)
I asked the players I was racing if they were also kicked from the PSN and the game and they said they weren't.  It was as though I just gave up and left the race!

Are we the only users of this router having this problem?  I hope not.  Any solution provided would appreciated ???

I have concerns as well about putting my PS3 into the DMZ.

I also have the concerns putting the PS3 into the DMZ but this is the only solution I know so far :(

The main problem I see is that while the PS3 is in the DMZ I cannot connect to the media servers etc. *frustrating*
