    Hi, I have COD5: World at War, and whenever I try to play online with multilayer, it says I need an internet connection, which I have on, and it won't allow me to connect to the server. Any ideas?

    make sure your firewall is not blocking the game from connecting to the internet.

    I really don't know why people call it COD5, but it caught on and plus it's easier than saying Call of Duty World at War or COD WAW I guess.
