Call your isp, if thats who you got your router from.. Atleast thats the ones i got my router from for free.. I just told my isp my issues with console gaming and he was like.. "Ooooh! then you need this router" Got the router after 2 days.. sent back my old one and WAM! Open nat settings since Call of duty 4 :D

Most times its your router thats the problem. If you have some of the older ones you cant fidle with it to get open nat.. Had large issues with other routers before i had a serious talk with my isp about gaming and routers. Had to check my speedtest.net wave ^^, My best download now on the new router is 155.52 Mb/s and upload is on 107.92 Mb/s with ping at 2 ms. Before i got that router it was more in the lines of 92-98 up and around 60-70 down. So old routers limit what you get big time apperently. +some for some reason also cant go into "gaming mode" And you have to do it manual. Some is limited there to so you cant even get better than moderate.

But thats the thing with online gaming on console, 90% of the issues you see on the forum is all about routers. People complain about Nat settings.. Router.. People complain about "lags".. most certain their router settings.. or some other dudes router settings ^^, And in that section im pretty sure hit detection lands to with data vs data in a fight for survival =P

There will allways be issues in console gaming sadly when it comes to p2p gaming. Only way to make p2p a perfect choice is to actually get ppl to learn how to set up their router/call their isp and ask what they/or I can do to get a better console experiance.

I can't get Moderate NAT type to go to open on this game at all. Every other game is fine, I have Open on all of them. My ps3 is in DMZ and I've forwarded the ports for crysis 2 just incase, on top of that. Still nothing though. No idea what's going on with that, apparently many people have the same issue.

It's bugged I believe, mines stuck on Moderate too, nothing I do to my router settings or PS3 changes it to Open.

I play on a moderate NAT and matchmaking has been fine for me. Takes no more than a few seconds. Even on wireless.

Open. I play hard wired right into the modem and have open NAT for every single game. Even game manuals tell you not to use a router if you have a choice.

Crysis 2 dosn't have many ports to open i believe it uses a some sort of secret port because when i connect directly to my modem it will apaire open.
Anyway will a open NAT type give me less lag like in the beta trailer because i just keep unleashing a whole clip off scar ammo and he doesn't why while he just waves his gun around and I die I mean WTF.

Even with an open NAT you will still have matches where you have only one or two bars. If that's the case just back out and try again. You do not want to play under those conditions.

Open NAT will just allow you to connect to everybody regardless of what NAT players have.
i dont think lag has anything to do with it. i think

Being that the game is ported from the 360, moderate, I believe, is actually NAT type 2. I don't think that it is anything worry about, and I think that it is a good thing to get.

I guess the only way to really see, is plug your PS3 directly into your modem, and see what happens. The connection probably won't get better, but your NAT type may change.
