Dave Wakefield What happens when you invite the 10th?
Matthew like they will join than get timed out]
Matthew like i have two ps3. mine and my wifes.. i wait for the 9 to be in the room and ill try to get her to join and it will say unable to join the host
Dave Wakefield They need to check the connection
Dave Wakefield everyone needs a NAT type open
Dave Wakefield that's why
Dave Wakefield o ok
Dave Wakefield two people on one router is always going to give one person a moderate nat type
Dave Wakefield two people on one router is very laggy and can cause many issues, unless you just use one console
