Host_Error: CL_ParseServerMessage: Illegible server message - svc_ba

Any Ideas on why its doing this? I join a server and start to play, and after about 3 min of playing it boots me, and I pull up the console and it gives me this error. I tried restalling Steam itself and then installing NS, but it didnt help. If anyone knows anything about this, I would be most greatful <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile-fix.gif' /><!--endemo-->

(Edit) FIXED!!! <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile-fix.gif' /><!--endemo--> After looking at couple of different Fourms having the issue with steam, I found a fix for the BEFSR81 V3 Linksys router using the 2.50.2 firmware. This could also fix other Linksys router problems as well, but its untested. For any steam game that you multiplay, Right click it in the "Play Games" Steam Window, and select Properties. From there click launch options. Then put in "-applaunch 10 +clientport 27006" (Without the Quotes of course) and the problem should be solved. In this case you'd want to do this to Half-life because NS runs off of it, but it should work on all steam related games. Thanks goes out to Blue November for sending me on the right path. <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile-fix.gif' /><!--endemo-->

    Then on second attempt you get this message:
    Host_Error: UserMsg: Not Present on Client 23?

    3rd Attempt:
    Host_Error: UserMsg: Not Present on Client 14?

    If so, it's a Linksys router issue. I've come across it when fixing a router for a client. Can't remember the fix though. <!--emo&::nerdy::--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/nerd-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='nerd-fix.gif' /><!--endemo-->

    Google says:

    Definitely seems to be relavant to your problem. If there's no fix listed there (have fun, 5+ pages...) I'd change firmware. Be warned, this process is highly likely to destroy your router. Read all instructions carefully.

    Ah, well then that makes since, I just upgraded the firmware to my router to fix other issues with my net work. I'll take alook in that page. Thanks for your help. <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile-fix.gif' /><!--endemo-->
