hmm don't see anything wrong with the details. any more info in the error message?

[x3pwnage]

Nah thats all it says
I dnt supose any ports need forwarding on my router? and if so, which ones?

[BARTgai]

i have no idea when it comes to the whole internet setup stuff. i basicly have my older brother help me with that

anyways, can you join other peoples games fine?

[x3pwnage]

Yea I can, although when I go on theres hardly ever anyone on lol

port forwarding issues would not cause the game to tell you there was an error, unless maybe the firewall restricted outgoing connections as well? most are configured to allow all outgoing and certain incoming ports. usually incoming stuff that was soliceted by something at your end is allowed too. so unless you have your firewall set to some kind of super paranoid mode, it's unlikely to be the issue

I didn't oopened any port on my router and it worked out of the box (and I have the firewall enabled). So it must be some other thing.

[x3pwnage]

Yea I disabled the firewall and it still doesnt work, ah well I guess Im destined to join games rather than make them lol

If you are using DHCP, to get an IP assigned automatically, try using a manual IP adress on your psp, after disabling DHCP.

Hope it helps!
