Hey guys.
As you all most likley know steam is what runs all the hl and hl2 etc games. Now i have the gold package for steam.(dod,dod:s,cs,cs:cz,cs:s,hl,hl:2,Hl:lc and many others) Now i love playing cs and dod and hl but recently my father installed a Linksys etherfast cable BEFSR41. We installed it and such to hook up a network between the 2 computers.

Ever since i hooked it up i cannot play any games through steam, i can still join each game and start up dod and cs etc and join a server perfect.but then i get into a every server and after say..20 to 40 seconds maybe about a minute it gets almost really laggy and im brought back to the main menu without any messege (ie: banned, disconnected, timed out)

I would really like to fix this problem, i almost have the money to start building my computer and i don't want to hook it up to the network i have going and not beable to play these games.

Any ideas of what could be going on?

Thanks guys
 
It sounds like you are simply on a new router where your online steam account has to redetect the internet connection. Or the system now has file and printer sharing enabled and maybe even remote access with the machine. These things will pull things down a little at times but shouldn't cut you off a server. You may have to reinstall the game package there so that the game's installer includes the changes there when relogging onto the account. When I put the Collector's Edition back on here after a board and card swapout lately I can imagine some glitches there at first too.
 
I guess ill have to try reinstalling it all.hopefully it works
thanks for the response

EDIT: ya.i tryed installing steam and the game application's.still i am getting disconnected out of nowere
