Electronic Arts UK Community - View Single Post - Problems with getting on the same squad as friends PS3

So, I went home, I tried, I failed.

I really don't know why I cannot get online in the same squad as a friend. We both have our routers in the DMZ, I also have the port forwards although I don't need them because of the DMZ.
We also have the same NAT type, which is type 2.

I am totally stumped now, has anyone got any suggestions on how to fix this problem?

Who are the people at EA that I need to speak toabout this problem?

Oh by the way, I am on Sky Broadband Max (16Mb)

and I get the full 16Mb throughput. My friend is on Sky Broadband Max too, he is hard-wired in and I am working off of the wireless. Have had no other problems with games such as Burnout Paradise or PES 2009.
So my guess is that it is something to do with EA's servers or something? But I hear that people do actually manage to get online in the same squads??? I don't know, I have almost given up now!
