COD 4 Key code problem

uber soldat · 16 May 2008 at 10:18

Since switching to v1.5 whenever i try to get on a MP server i nearly always get "Awaiting Key code authorisation" message then a disconnect after 10 seconds, this happened occasionally with 1.4 after a connection interruption but was usualy easily solved by a router reset which isn't the case now, any suggestions?

Have you tried updating PB since you patched up ?

Have you added seta cl_connectionAttempts "30" to your config file? - this will give the connection 30 seconds, and normally fixes the problem.

I've updated PB and that makes no difference, ill try extending the connection time and see if that works...

Ok extending connection time doesnt work either, the only way around it is to choose the start new server option and wait till verification message comes up which is a real hassle to do every time

type /reconnect in console

then keep console open, and press up and enter as fast as you can about 20 times, should work :> - that is of course unless you router is blocking the game or something

turn your windows firewall off and try connecting,if you connect ok,press windows key to minimize and turn firewall back on,if that doesnt work,right click on the desktop icon and run in admin mode,this worked for me.
