I am unable to connect to xbox live while on MW3. It says "lost connection to xbox live" but when I go to the dashboard it connects no problem to xbox live. Every game works online except MW3.
Whats the matter with it?
This happens to me sometimes. Unplug your modem for 30 seconds and after you plug it back in you should be good to go.
I would recommend first clearing your system cache:

Then you'll want to make sure that the necessary ports are open:

http://www.portforward.com On this webpage click on Router List > Select your router > Select your game
Disable any firewall or security features on your router.
Set port forwarding on your router to the IP address of your Xbox 360. This game uses port 3074 (UDP/TCP).
Additionally Xbox Live requires ports 80, 53 (TCP) and 88, 53 (UDP).
Thank you.
Clear System Cache worked for me. Was driving me nuts.
Was about to bin the game.
