Pretty common problem. Unless it's straight up crashing your game just wait it out

Check to see if your viaduct_rc4 is the full one. Some of the dm servers, if not all, download a corrupted or don't finish downloading viaduct rc4 for whatever reason. So try deleting it from your downloads folder and download it from somewhere else. Then try to rejoin.
