cheers for the reply merlin BUT you're gonna have to 'dumb it down' for me - regarding console play im not clue'd up on changing system settings but i will have a bash on what you said.

basically, when the message "connecting to EA servers" pops up, after a few minutes it says that it couldnt connect and i sohuld check my network settings, but its the only game that has trouble connecting (apart from COD4 at times but thats another story) for example, i play Burnout paradise alot of the time online and thats EA as is Pro street but its just AOT that im having the trouble with.

if you get chance mate, run though with me what i should try to change on my end for a result.
cheers again
