Every time i join a server i play so forth but once i leave that server and lefts say tab out or even just a few minutes inactive from the game i cant see no more servers in the list.

 

It happens once in awhile but even if i leave a game there is no more server in the list. so i have to close game out and wait 5-10 minutes then open game up and it will have servers in the list.

 

Another thing is when i type connect in the console then ip to server it just says connecting #1-whatever.

 

So i am wondering is there something on my end that i have to enable , port firewall something i dont know what to do.

lol well guess either one , nobody wants to answer or 2 im only one with this problem or 3 i didn't explain it fully so here is step by step on my problem

 

1- I log into my account and see full server list and join a server

2- play so forth then leave server but keep game still open

3- after few minutes of being away ill go to server list and no servers in list

4- Close game and wait 5-10 minutes serf internet and then go back and there is full server list again

 

OR

 

1- I log into my account and see full server list and join a server

2- play so forth then leave server but keep game still open (maybe tab out out)

3- after few minutes of being away ill go to server list and no servers in list

4- Ill try ~connect XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX:XXX

5- All i get is trying to connect to server but never connects

6- Close game and wait 5-10 minutes serf internet and then go back and there is full server list again

 

Its like im not getting internet to game or something once i close down a server and not join another server right away.

Maybe your router's UPnP goes berserk and the router reboots?

alt+tab when you can't see any servers and see if you still have internet connection.

i do still have internet because im on teamspeak 3 , and teamviewer at same time. so i close game down wait few minutes and it shows the servers.

now i see now servers in the list , i do ~ readstats , and try seeing servers and i still get nothing , i have the filter set to all which i know this . and nothing no servers nothing , nothing in defuse , favoriters or internet. So i restarted my computer for 100th time and still no server in the list and i try to type ~connect Ip and i still get trying to connect and nothing works so im trying to figure this out but no help.

 

I am in here and no one can answer my problem , i been on many forums but all help they gave me dont work so im wondering what the heck is going on now .

Try disabling your router's firewall, or any other firewall that might be messing with your connection.

nope nothing , still does the same thing

is it possible.. try plugging the internet modem to your pc without the router.

yeah i just tried that , still does it . here is one thing i haven't mentioned that may be a issue . what about me having windows 8?

OK i just reinstalled computer back to windows 7 and i can still see no server in my list and now it wont even show them after a few minutes m been hours and i did the update tool . can anyone point me to a good download for iw4m cause i guess it seems to me that im having a ton of problems with this . i mean most people i gave my link to it works fine . they have no problem so i am wondering why i cant see no servers in the server list will my filters set to all.

is there a download for mw2 that someone can post up a link ? this is one i downloaded but im looking for another download to try does anyone has a better one http://thepiratebay.se/torrent/5182431/ ... ER-SKIDROW
