I have read all the help lines on this and I was astounded at the number of players that this is happening to. Yes I have followed ALL THE TIPS AND TRICKS that everyone has suggested. Yes I have uninstalled and reinstalled. Yes I have cleared my dns Cache and all the other suggestions I could find out there. From virus protection to no virus protection, to white listing and the list of things I have tried multiple times is very disconcerting. So it is not just me having this issue. Why can't steam invest some time to give a work around. It is only steam that I have this issue. Sorry to say I cannot play games with dropped connections every 20 to 45 seconds.
