I have been having the same issue and from what I've seen Activision is trying to blame it on the internet providers. Which is garbage because if everyone is having trouble on multiple providers it means they are the problem and obviously don't want or plan to fix it. For this reason I've trown out my COD and will never buy anything with the Activision name on it again

i have the same issue cant belive the poor rsponse from activision its the same story evry time a new game comes out. its not my fault i have to wait a little longer before i buy it

@bobtheblower, that is not a solution, it's a temp fix. give it a day or 2 and it will happen again, or even the next time you turn your xbox on.

don't give activision more money by buying BO2 because thats what they are counting on. saps like you to just keep throwing money at them.

Hey Bobtheblower,    The servers get overflowed with traffic a lot, so it may confuse it and say they are offline, or "unavailable" at this time.   What I do is just backing out and click on connect again, after usually about the third time, It works.

There really is no solution to this, you can try some silly things people are recommending, or you can just wait it out, be patient and try something like resetting your router, then trying again.

I think I've answered your question, if you have anymore, Please feel free to reply.

well up until last week i was playing mw3 fine, till i joined our clan on elite. since then i have not been able to lobby up at all. so went and got bo2 because all my mates saythey have had less lag and connection errors on it out here in south africa..but everyone xcept me. now they are also in clans on elite. and no problem. but my clan is in US. since ive joined it, no gaming online if i get in i cant do ****, then get disconnected, and then finally signed out of psn?  any ideas?
