This worked, thanks. For me it had to do with the game Ports. I thought that by closing windows firewall down I would open all the ports, but that is not the case. Certain ports remain closed. You have to manually add all the ports as suggested in the EA article. I have XP service pack 2. I had to go into control panel/Security center/Manage security settings and then the exceptions tab. I then added ports. I named them bf2 and then systematically added the ports. Now I don't know wether I have compromised my security or by how much, I guess some at least. Anyway it worked for me.Ikon_Zero wrote:Have you all read EA's issues with connectivity?

Go to www.dslreports. They can give you a free security probe of your firewall and a speed and tweak test as well. Any ports not needed will be reported as such.
