Servers Won't Load

[Digger3120]

For some reason, whenever I go into multiplayer, no servers will load. CoD2 is unblocked on my firewall, if that was going to be a problem. I can't seem to figure it out, any suggestions on what to do?

Same as mine man i really wanted to play mp nothing comes up, and when i use xfire and click a server i just wait and wait for nothing to happen. I looked for a patch but there isnt one, i dont know what to do, someone please help.

did you guys look at the server filters? do you have the options at the top of the server browser saying "internet" ? and your connection speed right? you also have to set your connection speed in the options--turn on auto downloading-- try looking into the windows firewall settings as well--- good luck

Yes, setting your connection to Internet is vital. For some strange reason it is defaulted to LAN, if you have that on you will probably get nil results.

dont know if you guys were aware of this but its a problem which is all over the gaming world. its caused by a slow connection speed when scanning the available servers. The Master Servers are soo busy they cant cope with the amount of traffic.

Try using All Seeing Eye or XFire. These are free to download, and scan gaiming servers. Must quicker than the games inbuilt one.

i got all the setting right. I have xfire but when i go to a server im wait for along time for it to do nothing it just keeps counting. Next time ill leave it for a while and see what happens.

yeah i have to wait 15 - 20 seconds to authenticate me. A slower connection will give higher waiting times.

If you find it does this a lot and your not happy with it, try rebooting the pc, or turning the router off then on again. This is called a power cycle. Sometimes routers get a data clog, and rebooting them clears it.

Its ok now i had to turn off my norton internet security, it was blocking me form getting to the servers. Thanks guys for the help.
