EA Nation Hub revives infrastructure servers for a set of PSP EA games, including Medal of Honor: Heroes and Heroes 2, several Need for Speed titles, and a list of EA sports games. Their Discord is at discord.gg/fwrQHHxrQQ.
PPSSPP 1.19.3 and later autoconfigures infrastructure DNS per game, including EA Nation Hub games at eahub.eu.
Setup
- Use PPSSPP 1.19.3 or later.
- Open Settings > Networking and enable networking / WLAN.
- Under Infrastructure, set a unique Username. This is separate from the emulated PSP nickname used for ad-hoc play.
- Leave infrastructure DNS on autoconfigure unless a game fails to connect.
- Start a supported EA game and use its infrastructure / online multiplayer option.
If a game does not connect
Disable autoconfigure and set the DNS server to 51.254.141.170 (the current address of eahub.eu).
PPSSPP's infrastructure list notes that some EA sports titles work but can have incompatibilities between platforms, and that the EU version of FIFA 06 requires a patch. The project README also notes that the EU version of Need for Speed: Most Wanted 5-1-0 needs an SSL bypass patch, and that only the US versions of NBA Live 06/07/08 and NCAA 07 have online support.
