I'm pretty sure this is a CoD issue, but I want to ask here anyways and see if anyone else is having a problem. I can not find any games in MW3, it just searches over and over. I have tried both uPNP and static mapping of ports; XBL says I have Open NAT.

I have 25/25 fios, and using a Intel ATOM D510 pfsense router. I have absolutly no issues wiht any games except for CoD.

Here is one more test, I really don't see why it can't find games.

Seems to be a Modern Warfare 3 issue according to a quick search. Lots of other user seem to be having a problem with finding games. I wouldn't be too concerned for now if it's only one game out of the rest of your collection that does not work. After all, Modern Warfare 3 just came out and I'm sure a lot of people are slamming what little server capacity they set up (don't they plan ahead for these kinds of things?).

I just got MW3 for XBOX. When I start MW3, it disconnects me from XBOX LIVE and I can't connect to XBL at all. I have downloaded a 4MB patch update. Still no change. As soon as I exit the game, I automatically get connected back to XBL. Only seems to happen with MW3.

I bought my copy at Wal-Mart. Bought a 2nd copy from Costco. Same issue with both copies.

Make sure your router doesn't have the firewall set to a high enough level to cause problems with Xbox Live. Also, run a Connection Test on the Xbox and ensure you are getting Open NAT. Moderate NAT may work just fine, though. If you have Port Forwarding set up, make sure your Port Forwarding entries are correct.

All of this can be checked at http://192.168.1.1/ by logging in with the Username of admin and the Password being your router's serial number.
