i don't think that would be the case.. because it seems to me that steam itself would probly just run on one connection. and i have xp pro and have never had this happen, and i have also used it on home as well.. and i don't see this problem flooding everywhere.. so i would assume its not the os. and i know that at times when im working my connection to its max for a period of time my connection will go out.. so i would most definatly look into it being either your internet.. or router.. (if there is a router) maybe try pluging straight into the modem and see if it does it? really i wouldn't worry about it too much though...

Home or Pro? -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of Dagok Sent: Friday, October 28, 2005 6:09 PM To: [email protected]; [email protected] Subject: [hlds] Losing net connection when I refresh the server list This is a multi-part message in MIME format. -- [ 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.
