    what did we do, and would that be a reason I cannot pair up with online players in FIFA 10 through my PS3?

    You mean their DNS poisoning? In that case change your DNS servers to OpenDNS's or the Google DNS service (8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4).

    I dont understand.

    Everything bar this issue is working fine, I'm just wondering if it is because of what we done to get around the issue eircom was having at the time. I know feck all about DNS servers/ ports / Nat 1, 2 and 3 etc.

    Your choice of DNS servers won't impact your NAT status. I can't answer about any potential impact on the matchmaking without more details about the mechanism and logic they use to do so.
