Some router firmware versions can cause this, there are also some bad
routers (actiontec for sure).


Gee, that sounds awfully familiar.

Well then what is it?  If it's a general problem experienced with your
client, take it to the SteamPowered forums or wherever you get client
help where people can suggest things like updating your router's
firmware, etc.


AHA! Oh, that's what you'd get if you'd asked in the appropriate places
to begin with rather than selfishly tossing your stuff out where you
want lead Valve developers to stop what they're doing and help you fix
your network via basic troubleshooting you should be able to do in your
sleep with a hang-over.  Because of all the trolls.  Irony.

[hlds_linux] Losing net connection when I refresh the server list

[ Picked text/plain from multipart/alternative ]
This is no joke.  I am temporarily losing net connection when I refresh the 
Server browser list.  I can play a game fine, until I want to refresh the 
server browser.  This occurs from the ingame browser and the steam browser.  If 
using the ingame browser I actually lose connection to the current game.

This is a fresh WinXP SP2 install, all updates installed.  Firewall is on, and 
I just tried adding all of Steam to the firewall exceptions list and it still 
does it.  I never noticed the problem before, but I rarely play on anyone elses 
server but my own, so I usually just goto Favorites and join my server.

Any help would be appreciated.

ya know what, if you cant help then don't respond.  Posting on these lists
generally (your case excluded) gets a quicker, better and more accurate
response then using the troll infested Steam Forums, which seems to be where
you belong.  It also means that Alfred will see it, and he or someone at
Valve may have a solution.

Re: [hlds_linux] Losing net connection when I refresh the server list

2005-10-28 Thread Craig Moore
This isn't a hlds/srcds question, and he's right that it probably
should be taken to the forums. Valve developers also check the forums.
There's no need to take the simple reply and turn it into a flame war.

Re: [hlds_linux] Losing net connection when I refresh the server list

2005-10-28 Thread Kevin Ottalini

The most common cause of disconnect or feeze when you refresh a server list
is your router.

Try bypassing the router and see if you still have the same problem.
Some router firmware versions can cause this, there are also some bad
routers (actiontec for sure).

One solution is to lower the steam connection rate.
