Hey guys, I'm having a rather peculiar problem with tf2.

On the first connect attemt after launching it, it will cut out my internet connection (including mumble, steam etc) for almost a minute. After it's back up there's no more problems at all. Just first connect after launch.

Can't figure out why it does this.

I'm having the same Issue Aka... No idea why, but it started right after the Mac release of TF2, so maybe they mucked something up there

Guess you are not alone with connection issues atm :/

What it does with me is find servers, but I can't connect to them. Reset the router fixes it (usually), but then it loses connection to the steam cloud.

Yeah I'm having the same issue Spiderbloke (although not tried resetting my router).

Are you guys on Virgin Media broadband, with their NETGEAR WGR614v9 router? Cos I am, and people on that Steam forum thread seemed to be too.

Edit: I only started getting this problem with the Engie update btw. Stupid hard hat-wearing, guitar-strumming, TF2-breaking engies

Happened to me too. Then I ran everything as administrator and it's fine
