    yeah i get the same error but i only get it after about 3-4 hours. I thought i was because i overclocked my system but guess not now. I bet it's a memory problem. I have 1 GB of memory. How much do you have? It's almost like NS eats all the memory then crashes. Anyone else know?

    sometimes i get this error when my wireless adapter dosen't want to connect with my router =/ pretty damned annoying... it just disconnects at random intervals

    I sometimes get this error, prolly once every 1 - 2 months, Im not on a network, its a direct connection on DSL, Everythime it happens I notice that My internet has actually dropped in a way that the computer hasnt realized but then it quicky reconntects to the net within 10 seconds all during wicth your trying to exit hl and so never prolly noticed it before.

    Upon loss of connnection hl and your computer will still think their is a connection and so rather than HL saying connection problem in top right itl report bad packet like it thinks it recived a 0 byte packet or is trying to send packets on a connection it belives is open but fails..

    This also happens to me whenever my ISP suddenly decides to do some work somewhere.

    i stopped getting this error when i changed to a static ip address.(i have a wireless network) It seems that my netword would "repair" itself every 30 min, i dont know why "repair" crashes Ns or Hl but the problem is gone.

    repair would reasigne your IP and thus disconnect you from the server, rather violently.

    don't play games on a wireless network, plug in dirrectly.

    Its a WINXP thing. Trust me.

    It occurs in all online games in one form or another.

    In some games (HL/2) you may notice the off hook light go out and then resume after a approx amount of time.

    Uninstalling QoS schedular in network properties may eliminate the problem. For me it just meant i didnt crash back to desktop with that error. Which of course made the game far more playable however my connection still drops, it just resumes afterwards.

    Others games will have the same symptoms...WC3 and even Quake 2.


    If uninstalling QoS doesnt fix it, there is nothing that can be done.

    actualy it is the simple fact that he was on a wireless network.

    What you are talking about only happens to people on Dailup.

    QoSPktSched will create massive amounts of choke if you are on dail up (and will only do anytihng if you are on dialup) as what it does is regulate pkts being sent/recieved.

    some how this is good for regular net browsing (I think it makes sure that each pkt has as much info in it as possible before sending it), but basicaly creates a bottleneck for gaming.

    go into network settings and disable QoSpacketschedular

    in the case of XP home you have to uninstall it.

    Also anyone who "dails" up their broadband connection may also find disabling this useful as well.

    (at least my MSN voice conversations are no longer ridiculusly laggy)

    I get this error when my ISP cuts off whilst in the middle of a game.. unfortunatly this is every 2hours!

    Its not unique to NS.. happens in CS allt he time..

    i would recommend mentioning it (or mentioning it more) on the steam forums.

    Doubt Valve will do anything with the halflife engine any more though.
