not sure if mine falls into the same place here. But I am timing out at least 5 times ever 30min while playing CSS.

Hi Mutha,

The timeouts you are getting has nothing to do with the server or the connectivity from the internet to the server. If you are experiencing timeouts to two different servers there is clearly an issue with the account or on your line. Best would be to take it up with whoever you are paying for this line.

A few questions:

1. Are you just starting up steam, set it to africa from the content location and letting it download?
2. Who is your ISP? If internet Solutions, have you spoken to your account manager?
3. Are you using SteamWatch?
4. Are you using one of these new Uncapped accounts or is it a proper Business ADSL account?

Krad.

Are you using a local only account?

I am running Route Sentry. So it is taking off my now capped telkom account and I am using my 10gb local part of that account.

But I am also trying it out with another SIAX based international account with out route sentry and the same thing happens.

Since Friday, when most of the ISPs Cut back over to Seacom, there has been problems where certain users have been timing out as well as having problems connecting to steam. This will sort it self out pretty soon.

I got an email through my Uni explaining that although Seacom is back and functional, problems are still expected as the re-routing of traffic is adjusted back to pre-Seacom cable snap. They expect that the issues will be rectified by the close of business on Friday.
