i have issues with my sony stereo headset, that uses the dongle. i use my bluetooth and do not have issues. all of my ps3 are wired and have not had issues with multiple wireless (bluetooth) headsets being used.

i dont really play dust wireless but i have before and only my Sony Stereo (with dongle) has issues, even when wired.

if you are having issues with your stereo headset you can see this: https://forums.dust514.com/default.aspx?g=posts&t=27747

edit: btw my headset issues are with Dust only as well. my sony bluetooth mic works fine but not my sony stereo headset

Okay I'm ever more curious now....

I know we may not solve this (then again we may) but I'm still thinking it's a wireless port issue for VoiP. Yes...VoiP is a pain in the kitten because of pipe that is needed to run it, and I have limited VoiP networking experience...BUT...hell this is how you learn :)

So if y'all do have the time, what model router / headset / etc...are you using?
Go to speedtest.net and test your speed 5 x's and pull an avg and post them as well?

Specific details on the equipment would be greatly appreciated.

I know other games work fine, but also realize all games have their own dedicated porting. Which is why you're always seeing some players with issues and some without.

(if that's too much to ask I'll bugger off, but I'm really interested now)

I run a wired 7.1 Triton. Never wanted to mess with the wireless because of the issues and never run my consoles on wireless because of the issues. Which as me wanting to do some self teaching.

Okay, I have a Belkin N+ wireless router model # F5D8235-4V1

My speed test results are 24.87 Download and 3.62 Upload. This was done on my wireless computer.
My bluetooth head set is a Logitech Cordless Vantage headset for the PS3. The other one is the Sony 7.1 wireless headset for the PS3. You know, the one with the dingle berry (dongle), Lol.

You know, one other thing I didn't mention is when my wife gets on DUST and joins our squad, she kills comms for the whole squad not just for her and I.

Well that's all the info I know what to get. Let me know if you have any ideas. I love problems like this but I do enough of it at work and when I get home I just want to game. LOL. Not really, I mean I do but I barely have anytime to game as it is. Lol.

Thanks

My wife's PS3 is connected to our wireless N+ router with a 100% signal strength. But everytime she gets on to DUST her mic will not work. It works with any other game just fine, just not DUST. Can you please explain to me why and what I can do to resolve this issue besides not using a mic and/or running an eathernet cable 100 feet across my house. Thank you and have a great day.

Sounds like it's a networking the VoiP issue you're dealing with and if you're new to networking, it would be better to have them walk you through it. Are you running BOTH PS3's at the same time? Both wired? 1 wired 1 wireless? etc... Those are things we need to know in order to direct you properly. But it almost sounds like you need to open some ports and put your PS3's in the DMZ.

I have one system that is wired to my router and one system that is wireless. I have tried this even with the wired PS3 off. The mic is a bluetooth mic. Now, keep in mind, we can play BF3 and MOH and every other game with the same setup and both PS3's on, and bluetooth mics on both systems and everything works just fine. I only have this issue with DUST514. As stated earlier I have 16meg cable internet. One headset is a bluetooth and the other is a bluetooth(I believe) sony headset with the dingle berry thingy mabob. We are both using DS3 controllers. Like I said this issue only arises when we play DUST together.

Okay so what I've found so far, there are a LOT of VoiP issues with the Belkin, a LOT! What's your MTU set at? If it's not 1500, try setting it to that first and see what you get. EDIT: I can't help it, but you have the PS3's in the DMZ right? Or are you just running open ports for the VoiP? Or nothing at all and straight shooter whatever the Belkin gives you?

Always make sure your PSEYE (video camera) is disconnected before starting dust or else you will be able to hear everyone else but not able to talk. Same thing happens with DCuniverse for me. But only those two games

I'm taking a stab here...but ever since they merged EVE/DUST again we're seeing problems with the market and VoiP. So it could be an issue with their server cluster and merging the VoiP across them and the platforms. Would be interesting to see where this issue is located, as I still believe it's on their server side. Also good to see everyone pitching in and trying to help with this as well.

Reason why I ask is because I have hooked up my wife's ps3 hard wired to the router and I am still having the same issue. It's really wierd. Now, she can be on and in a squad. When I connect to the DUST servers with or without a mic, she loses comms. I quit DUST and she gets comms back. I have no idea whats going on.

I'd check that out and uninstall IF you have anything left over. You know as well as I do there are things we cannot explain, so why this worked for him and it may not for others...not sure. But it's worth a shot.

HEAT SoulRipper ZionTCD Legacy Rising 45	Posted - 2012.10.28 21:44:00 - [29] - Quote Well...then try this as this is my last effort, it's growing more and more apparent there's VoiP issues that CCP needs to work out. 1) PS3's are static IP's and set up in the DMZ or 2) PS3's are static IP's and port forwarding is set for each IP to the listed ports by CCP. Also make sure your MTU is high enough since VoiP travels differently over the networks. After that, sorry couldn't help out anymore. -HEAT

Basically, when both of us are on DUST in kills comms for us and anyone in our squad (player made or not). With our mics on or off, it doesn't matter. Basically when you have 2 systems in the same house on DUST it kills comms. I don't know what to do.
Cross Atu Conspiratus Immortalis 775	Posted - 2012.11.07 04:49:00 - [32] - Quote I have a similar problem, it started last Friday (11/2/2012). My voice chat worked fine in all respects up until that day. Now however I cannot be heard by anyone over voice chat. All other features of the chat remain fully functional but my mic no longer transmits. I have tested this multiple times over the weekend with two mics (both less than a week old and each of differing brands) and the results remain constant. I am also only using a single PS3 and altered none of my settings (in Dust, on my PS3, or on my network at large) between when it was fully functional and when it ceased to function properly. 0.02 ISK Cross
Snaps Tremor Doomheim 19	Posted - 2012.11.07 19:09:00 - [33] - Quote Bulking up the topic with the same issue here. I've tried the Astro Mixamp, the bluetooth Wireless Headset, the Playstation EYE, unplugging the Playstation EYE, standing on my head, spinning on the spot, and coughing while holding my sack, and the best I've ever managed to get is hearing one or two people talk (mostly to themselves) during a match and having the white voice chat bubble on-screen, but with no ability to broadcast myself. Tried it in a squad. Tried it outside a squad. Tried pushing to talk. And not pushing to talk. You get the idea. And yes, all of these things work fine in every other PS3 game. Even Everybody's Golf, which (up to now) had the most dysfunctional voice chat system of any living PS3 game.

Tek465 Circle of Huskarl Minmatar Republic 6	Posted - 2012.11.07 22:25:00 - [35] - Quote Years ago, I had similar problems with Starwars Battlefront. With two or more PS2's only 1 could have voice chat. The problem turned out to be with NAT (Network Access Table) and a single IP address. We ended up asking the ISP for a block of IP addresses and putting a simple switch after the modem. We then gave each PS2 it's own IP (NOT 192.168.xxx.xxx) and it worked fine. I no longer have anyone else sharing my network so I can't test this out anymore. But it might be interesting for CCP (or anyone) to test out a home LAN party type connection. (a bunch of PS3's with 192.168.xxx.xxx sharing the same external IP) You might also want to make up a truth table to submit to the Devs. Sample: PS3 1 connected (wired) / PS3 2 not connected = PS3 1 comms work PS3 1 connected (wired) / PS3 2 connected (wireless) = PS3 1 comms work, PS3 2 comms silent PS3 1 not connected / PS3 2 connected (wireless) = PS3 2 comms work PS3 1 connected (wireless) / PS3 2 connected (wireless) = Neither comms work Etc. Etc. Etc... If you see a pattern, it might point to your router not being able to handle the NAT routing properly. See if you can tap off before the router or try switching to a different router. If it happens with different routers, it points to a problem with the game not seeing different consoles behind a single IP.

This setup doesnGÇÖt require NAT or inbound port forwarding and is used in scenarios where the PS3 is the only device wanting to use the Internet connection. This isnGÇÖt that common as most users share their Internet connection with other devices in their home. Type 2: This is the most common and ideal type where the PS3 is sitting behind a RG that is performing NAT. The PS3 will have a private IP address which is translated to a private or public IP address by the RG. Type 3: This usually implies you have a problem in the way the PS3 is accessing the Internet. This may be caused by a firewall or port restrictions. This isnGÇÖt ideal and will result in a sub-optimal gaming experience. http://netnix.org/2011/09/06/understanding-ps3-nat/ if you do have Type 3 then you're SOL

I didn't really have anybody that I could communicate with so I couldn't really test it. I did get lag though. I don't understand. How often does lag occur for everybody? Mine seems to happen right when I am going to shoot as somebody. With all that said, I didn't notice any difference with port forwarding. Although, I could of done it wrong too. I'm starting to think that my router blows. I just never thought that a router made a difference. Can anybody confim this for me, and if it does suggest the best router's for me? I may go buy a new one today.

Here is what my other router is. http://www.pcmag.com/article2/0,2817,2343198,00.asp
