So recently I've been noticing that I will sometimes get timed out from a TF2 server. The server never crashed, as I was able to rejoin a second after it happened. I never disconnected from the Internet, as I was still able to use programs such as Skype, Mumble, and TeamSpeak during the time when it does this.
I have no idea what causes this, I've had this problem in the past, but it went away, and now it's back.
Some fixes that people have already suggested are to forward the ports:
- 27030-27039 TCP
- 1200 UDP
- 27000-27015 UDP
Also was suggested to restart my router sometimes, still to no avail.
So please, can anyone help me?

Or if you are too lazy, but still have this problem, here's how to fix this:
KillerZebraHmm. There are a few things we can try. Lets try with an easy one.
Disable steam cloud sync.
in TF2
1. Go to options
2. Go to multiplayer
3. Go to advanced
4. uncheck your "Synchronize with Steam Cloud"
So if you are having any problems, you can do the above as a first step. As to fix it after that, I have no idea, I haven't had any problems.
