Have you opened the proper ports in your firewall. Disabling a firewall is not enough, and dangerous, the ports will still be closed.

The ports are: 20001 (used by the ping), 20005, 20050, 20080 and 20100 (all UDP, except 20100, wich is TCP).
The 20005 port is used by the lan game finder system, the others are used to connect and to effectively play the game.
So, in order to accept online connections, the server must have these ports open and be on a public IP (or have these ports forwarded to it).
This is total BS, my friend and I are having the same problem, with the matchmaking server error, we cant even get to the online server menu. Im wondering if Ubisoft took down the servers to force sales of the new HAWX game.. If anyone knows how to get play Blazing Angels online please let me know..
