Can't Play Crossfire

I created this account specifically to ask one serious question...
I've really been enjoying MNC, but one can only play so much co-operative.
Whenever I go to Crossfire and select "Quick Match" it starts the little "SEARCHING" bar and then... nothing. I've left it searching in excess of an hour, at several different times of day, yet the result is the same.
So, is there anything I can do?

buy internet?

I lol'd. But seriously, of course he has internet cause how would he download mnc without it?

Anyway, it might just be your NAT type. If its strict then it's harder to find games.
