    It maybe your ISP, there's a similar post regarding NTL and Quakewars over on the Quake board. Some ISP's have installed throttling software for torrent traffic, but it's also wrongly picking up game traffic as torrent traffic too.

    Try "cl_connectionAttempts 60" in the console. At least I think that is the command. Type "connectionAt" in the console and use the arrow key to go down to the connectionAttempts command and add 60.

    That should force it to keep attempting to connect after 10 seconds when it will stop by default.

    Are you using a 3rd party router? Or the stock Eircom router?
