How to unlock the IPXSETUP.EXE achievement in DOOM - Definitive Guide
As of July 2016, for whatever reason it seems that that it can take a long time to connect with other players. It took me over an hour to get paired up with players (I live in the US with a fast connection) - just be patient and you'll be matched up. Given how long it took, I decided to combine this achievement with this one:
Overall it only took about 30 minutes to get to level 5 (and my team won the first MP match).
The Combat tested, Doomguy approved achievement in DOOM worth 59 pointsReach Level 5 in Multiplayer.

What gamemode did you play? I just waited 75 minutes to get into TDM, but it didn't work...

The multiplayer is pretty much dead and somewhat broken now at the end of 2020.
- This has to be done in a public match. "Private" and "Practice" don't count.
- A minimum of 4 players is required.
- You can switch the region before looking for a match by pressing in the multiplayer menu. "North America" might have most players left.
- Boosting with a player party is not that simple: you can group up to a party of up to 6 in a lobby, but the game will not start until another random player outside of your party joins the game. To make this work you should not invite the people you want to boost with to your session. Instead make sure you all have the same region selected and use match making to be paired up together.
- Choose something other than "Beginners Only". Players above level 10 cannot join that lobby. "Team"-based matches are a better choice.
You can create a boosting session via the "create a gaming session" on the TrueAchievements site or check if there is one planned in the future.

Great call Fejer, I'm in England so searched a few times over a period of a few days sticking to Europe and got nothing.
Very 1st time I changed to North America I got straight in a match and got both this + level 5 within 2 matches.

@TheGillesMuller: I'm happy it worked.
When I did this achievement around 1 year ago, there was a TA boosting session where we were 6 players (EU and US) and were having difficulties finding each other due to the server region and the "Beginners Only" playlist.

This is reliant on your team as much as yourself. It took me a few hours to get it as I was always on a bad team. I had rounds in which I finished in first, and my team lost by a significant margin. Keep trying though and you will find a decent team and get a win.
