Unable to join Friends lounge or host...

[richiem2282]

Hey guys,
Just wondering if anyone else is having this issue. When I go to join my friends lounge, it tells me that they haven't setup the room correctly. It only seems to be happening with my friends in Europe, I'm in NYC. And even when I host my lounge, they can join for a few seconds and immediately get kicked out. This is very annoying, any one have any ideas???


Happy New Year to All

Before doing anything else, both of you should set your PS3's time via internet and check if you have set 'daylight saving' correctly (off).

You could be onto something there, I just checked my PS3 time and it was 3 mins faster than real time... Cheers mate, hope it works...

I can't set up my lounge since update, it just stays on the loading bar and the only way out is to turn off the ps3!

did you try the time sync Phil? I've done it but am still waiting for the lads back home to go online to see if it works...

I'll try later, but i always sync my clock and have daylight time off anyway so not looking hopeful.

I doubt time sync will help, my time is an hour off and I have no problems getting into my lounge or friends lounges.

seemed to work fine for me after I and my buddy in Europe synced time with internet on the PS3..

I think my friend was having this problem and im not sure if he had to search for the room or he just waited a while.

the problem I was getting was it said the Host had not initially setup the room correct... And even though they were in the room/lounge it was showing up empty from my side...
