I also just confirmed with this person that if they click "cancel" on the "retrying" connection box before the timeout occurs, they were able to successfully join the server. Seems pretty bass ackwards, but that was his workaround yesterday. He confirmed this on four systems (two on one public IP) working off of Time Warner Residential and Business class.
Seems like it's definitely an issue since he confirmed it on different systems and it wasn't linked to one game server. -----Original Message----- From: hlds-boun...@list.valvesoftware.com [mailto:hlds-boun...@list.valvesoftware.com] On Behalf Of Steve Colebourne Sent: Monday, May 04, 2009 10:27 AM To: Half-Life dedicated Win32 server mailing list Subject: Re: [hlds] TF2 - Concurrent Connections from one public IP blocked Not checked since the update, but used to get this a lot a while back. We now run each client behind the same ip on a different client port and get no problems - but as I said, haven't been on tf2 with two machines since said update. Don't know if the above will help or not! turb0z wrote: > Since the last Valve update for TF2, I’ve been getting reports from my > community members that if two people try to join a TF2 server from the same > public IP address, the second person gets a “connection failed after 3 > attempts” message.
