Both looked up, it still do not explain why i get a horridly slow connection to a server in same county (steam) and a fast connection to servers outside of country, the increased number of nodes for the signal to travel thru would have a increased latency but ofcourse thats in miliseconds, so...

I pray that the crappy useless steam will be purely optional. the little i use it for TF2, i get ridiculous speeds, 150 kbs on good days whit average at 75 kbs, and that is whit the closest server, the bloody program disconnects randomly for no reason. Give me the good old boxed version whit cd...

There are no events for the timespace of the crashes.
