Warning: Connection problem ? CS Source Vista?

iMacMart · 18 Sep 2007 at 20:17

Hi guys

I don't play that often but me and a few mates are getting together Friday night to have a bash at CS SOurce again

Problem is I get 'Warning: Connection Problem' in red in the top right corner 10 seconds after joining the server?

I have turned off all firewalls, anti-virus, I'm not actually losing my net connection, everything is fine?

Do I have to open ports on my router some something? Gutted as I was looking forward to playing!

I'm running Vista 64bit if that makes any difference?

PLease help

Yeah I only get it on some tbh?

I have opened ports turned AV off but now joy

Let me know if you fix it and i'll do the same

I'm going to throw a Netgear router on tomorrow and see if I still get the same issue?

What OS are you running btw?

Was going to play Insurgency but that will be the same I bet

Ah well at least we know it may be relating to Vista 64 bit then?

I'll try that router tonight just to see

iMacMart · 19 Sep 2007 at 13:31

Ah at least we're not alone

I'll be sure to update either way later gents!

Mindriot I have a Thompson 585v6 too mate!!

Latest firmware, and my ISP is ADSL24!!

Just putting lastest firmware on a Netgear DG834Gv3 now and I will put it in tonight and post my findings back here!

Lol I see a patten arising here!!

Not at home as yet, doing some OT

Will report back later

iMacMart · 19 Sep 2007 at 19:19

As far as I can see problem solved

Tried 3 random servers and no issues at all!

Something to do with the 585v6 then?

iMacMart · 19 Sep 2007 at 19:31

Must be those to then? But some XP users seeing issues also?

iMacMart · 19 Sep 2007 at 20:56

Didn't for me as I remember, i'd have to put the 585v6 on and check to be sure though.

Having said that my internet seems faster and speedtest.net reseults look better than before, may stay with the Netgear for now

Anyone tried the above help?

iMacMart · 20 Sep 2007 at 10:44

Haven't seen it it yet sound like fun!

Let me know if the above sorts your issue out?

iMacMart · 20 Sep 2007 at 19:38

Totally off topic here but never mind

What the hell is going on with my server list? It's always bunched when I start it?

Any idea's on a fix :confused:

iMacMart · 20 Sep 2007 at 20:10

Doh!

Cheers anyhow Mind

is your css playing ball now after the router port thing?

iMacMart · 20 Sep 2007 at 21:55

Lol nah it's been fine and my general speeds have picked up if I'm honest?

As you haven't been back I can only assume its fixed?

iMacMart · 21 Sep 2007 at 07:14

Good!

iMacMart · 24 Sep 2007 at 21:45

Well I changed to the Netgear router and when I loaded CS source up Saturday I got the connection error again, I opened the ports and went back to the same server and no issues, but I will check the above linky as the Speedtouch is now my back up router
