What kind of connection speed do you need to be able to host cod4 ranked games? Or is it a NAT type issue. Is it a speed issue or just luck as i have never hosted in my entire life!

If i could host, the 'host ended game' would never happen in the middle of the game as i do not quit when i have a good connection.

Well i don't host much but i think it is when there is barely anybody in the selected game type.

If thats the case, I must be very unlucky as I have never hosted in my life. I reckon there is a bit more to it than that.

It used to be that your PS3 had to have certain ports open, but now with the patch anyone can host.

I've only hosted once. And I quit the game early and was like,"Whoops, my bad everyone."

I don't have the patience to host

If i were you I would just try to host a game and if people are complaining of lag then your connection might not be the best.
