LAG? 
EDIT:! INTERNET SETTINGS. PUT EASY SETUP! you dont need to put mtu and all the crap just clik easy setup and ull get host alot easier and alot more
FIRST OFF IF YOU DON'T LAG SWITCH THEN DON'T WASTE YOU'RE TIME LOOKING AT THIS OR COMMENTING.. THIS DOES NOT IMPLY TO YOU. IF YOU HAVE SOMETHING HATEFUL TO SAY OR JUST WANT TO FLAME GO AHEAD LOOK LIKE AN IDIOT
[/B] okay i got permission by TheKid420 to post a new update on getting host on black ops. So all credit goes to him for this great tut You must login or register to view this content.
Well if you haven't seen his tut on forcing host with lag switch then go take a look at it before asking stupid question like "how do i make a lag switch" and all that crap. GOOGLE < use that.
its a short simple update nothing special or major
UPDATE:
-When joining the game you want, right when it says``testing matches xx% - 0/xx good games" or whatever % it is.
-Turn on you're lag switch and LEAVE IT ON THAT.
-don't switch it off as in 420's video.
-Takes about 10 seconds of lagging it at that you will be in your own lobby.
-Host Migration will happen. when migrating host just turn on till 4 and then off. no need to turn back on at 5. when i do that it usually lags me out.
-just a easier and simple way of getting you're own lobby instead of having to turn it on then off then on an then off.
INFO:
-After each game to see if you still have host or not.
-Turn on you're lag switch right when it gets to 0 before the game counts down
-When lagging it, if it starts counting down turn off lag switch and you'll still have host.
-If it doesn't count down while lagging then no host and back out.
HATERS
-Flame all you want. It's a game. Us lag switchers LOVE it when you cry about us lag switching.
-Everyone knows this game blows. So this is what makes the game fun for all who know
If you would like me to post a video i will do so as soon as PSN is back up[/CENTER]

I to seem to get that freeze you are talking about too. Do you let it play out from there or do you back out of the lobby. When I get that freeze the next message I can see at the the top is the match is about to begin, it launches and I have host. Is your Modem and router all one unit or are they separate? Have you tried playing with a friend in a private lobby to make sure your switch is setup and working properly? To clarify my setup is as follows: Modem plugged into router. Router plugged in to Linksys 5 port hub. Then 50 foot cable with switch wired in between hub and Xbox. Try getting a friend to do a private match with you and see if your setup is correct. I would recommend switching the the lag switch to where one end is plugged into 10/100 hub and one end into the Xbox. Let me know if that helps. If not I will try to record a video and explain it better.
Do you NEED the five port switch?

Do you need the five port switch or is that just optional? It seems I don't have any luck with the switch between the modem and the router. I'll buy a switch box if it's necessary.

Hey. I've built a lagswitch the way it was shown in every single video on youtube, tutorial so on. I'm using a light swith from a floor lamp. I cut through the SOLID ORANGE wire but when I switch the switch on OFF (OFF=LAGSWITCH ON) my XBox 360 gets disconnected from the internet. Do you have any idea what I'm doing wrong/what I did wrong.

Haxor!
the lag switch will disconnect you from the internet if you have it directly out of the ps3 or x box. you need to run it through a 'switch' or through another router before it gets to your machine.
so.... phone line-modem-ethernet cable-lagswitch-ethernet cable-'switch'or router-ethernet cable-ps3 or x box
if you have xbox or ps3-ethernetcable-lagswitch-ethernet cable-modem it will disconnect you immediately
