Hey, everytime i go to join a online game in Call Of Duty: Black Ops, it takes a long time to find players, then in the end its puts me in a room by myself. Same thing with Call Of Duty: Modern Warfare 2, the only game i can play online is Halo: Reach, if anyone could help me, that would be great, by the way im using a wifi network .

1. Please provide your Inter Service Provider (ISP) / who gives you internet
2. It may be out of the question but try a Wired Connection.

Perhaps he upgraded the FW and it doomed his xbox360!
Anthony
Well i didn't know how to get my ISP until i google'd it ahah. Says my ISP is IDMI? And i can't try wired because my internet cable is in my sisters room, and my xbox is in my room, i can move it their to try it if you like? but i doubt it will change anything, but its worth a try! And i don't think my xbox's doomed since like i said before, i can play live in games like Halo:Reach .

u cant play online with wifi..
Anthony
Uhh Yeh i can -.-? I'm playing Halo: Reach right now, althought theres a small lagg, i am playing fine, all i want to know is why CoD won't work. Oh plus to gain wifi access with xbox, you need a Wireless Network Adapter, which i have. :P

Guys please, try constructing a meaningful account of what is going on.
I can't understand what's going on here to even help you
But please note Anthony - games such as CoD need a "CLEAN" DSL internet connection for the p2p-like matchmaking to work effectively
i know many friends that have the SAME problem as you - and being behind a wifi connection CAN effect this.
Please Please can you take note of the NAT type that displays for you on the main menu of blackops/mw2
In addition i possible fix is to join games in session - meaning if you have ANYONE on your friends list, simply join their game session - also i believe XBL lets you even join sessions of people you have met online
Also this Wifi dongle for the OLD 360's is incredibly unreliable, i know you already said that it isn't possible for you to try a wired connection, but try making it happen
you can buy like a 20m network cable for as little as 20,000 LL these days.
