There are  number of forums and topics on the net about this wii a number of recommendations but none of them which I've tried have worked. This include changes to the router and Vita network settings. 

Personally, I think both Sony and the game makers need to get a grip of the issue and come out with a solution?

PS. Without out going into too much details the suggested solution involves:

1) Assigning a static IP to your vita

2) Port forwarding certain ports (I resulted to enable all ports) to the Vita

I'm not sure why you're holding Sony and the developers responsible. This happens on Xbox Live as well. There's nothing that the developers, publishers and hardware manufacturers can do and if they could have it would have been done a long time ago as this is an on going issue. The problems is there are way too many variables when it comes to internet connections not to say the least being multiple ISP's and multiple router brand and models in use each behaving differently. No matter what the hardware manufacturers and developers do there will always be some people with these issues.

I forwarded ports and it did nothing

I then called O2 to get PPPOE user name and password. He said that they don`t use PPPOE  and mentioned something about "bridging". Anyway he told me to hard reset my routes (pin in hole). I said I did not really want to do that as I had settings on it (static ip for PS3 etc).

So instead he tried a remote update of the router. He said it had been used for similar problems with MW3 on PS3. Anyway he tried it and it worked. Now on NAT2.

Might just be an O2 wireless 2 solution, but it works.

Exactly the same issue I had. WipeOut working fine, as is Mortal Kombat. But Resistance not working and neither was Unit 13 (which I have had since release). Now (see my solution below) Resistance is working and I assume Unit 13 too.

this helps no one -_- o.O

All,

Good news I've spoken to the O2 tech team and they say it's know problem and they are working on a firmware update and other router manufactures have seen a similiar issue. In the meantime they are sending a patch to my router which should fix the problem.

If it works my advice is to speak to your service providers ASAP. 

Soz! Sony for every doubting you

All, I'm now over my nat 3 vita issue. My service provider O2 have installed a patch onto my router and it now reports nat2. If seems there problem has occurred with a number of routers, so my advice is talk to your service provider as it seems it ain't a Sony or game issue. Ezz
