Me and friend has type 2 NAT but still can't connect.

Friend(1) and I are trying to play Black Ops together but if we trying to join each other party it comes up with an error like "Game is not longer available" or something like that. I got my friend to go to Internet Connection Settings and he has a Type 2 NAT. So do I. So we should be able to connect right?

Some people say that Black Ops isn't very good on the PS3 so we try and voice chat on the PS3 but it still comes up with a NAT error. I have iiNet and friend(1) has Telstra. Would that be the cause. Friend(2) has iiNet like me and we can connect fine. But Friend(1) and friend(2) can connect.

What is going on?

I just found out that my routers latest firmware was in 2007

So my firmware is up to date...

Would the ISP be the problem? The friend with connection problems has a different one to mine. The friend that I can connect to fine has the same ISP as me.
