ooh 4 days too late I know, but if you're still having this problem, check your nat type under network settings. If it says nat type 3, this is your problem. You'll need to change the settings so it says 2 instead.

As above check your NAT type 2 should be ok but that can also cause problems if your routers not opening all traffic.

Personnally i use a wired connection and DMZ setup i have never had issues finding players.

Ohh yes i have NAT type 3 what should i do to change this setting?

and as for the DMZ do i need sth additional to buy ?

[AnaC96]

Well firstly i tried to follow this instraction guide on how to put my ps3 into a DMZ. Well my NAT this time again is Type 3 what should i do?

What router do you have, and are you wired or wireless?

Make sure you're also using a static IP.

[AnaC96]

What do you mean? I use a normal router. Does it have a name too?
I am using wired connection
What is a static IP?
Well i am facing this problem only at RDR, not everywhere else.

[AAAAAAAARRGH]

Look on the underside of the router. There should be a label with the name of the manufacturer and the model number.

I can understand how you feel. Every once in a while my nat type changes to 3 and it only happens while attempting to play RDR.

Edit. To save some time, manually input your network settings on your PS3. Only this time, change your Primary DNS to: 8.8.8.8 and your Seconday DNS to 8.8.4.4.

See if that makes any difference.

I didn't get around to buying RDR until Jan of this year and only started trying out the multiplayer this week (Monday), I had no problem finding matches filled with other players (and at odd hours of the day).
