    Well I figured out what may have been the problem all along, something simple troubleshooting should have shown me. The problem laid within my router. I run an early 2011 macbook pro with Windows using bootcamp, and apparently for some reason NFS: MW didn't like my router, the airport. When I connected the modem directly into my computer via ethernet the online worked without a hitch and I had some really fun hours of gameplay.

    and for the record, even though I should have figured out the solution myself I had an extremely pleasent and helpful EA operative on the phone for a good hour going through the line of troubleshooting. I actually felt bad that I spent so much of his time but he was really nice. The only reason I didn't try this step on my own is because it was my parent's modem and I had trouble getting it to connect to my computer before so in esscence I was lazy.
