TF2 Synching

[Patre]

Over this past weekend (since Fri), I noticed that TF2 was constantly trying to synch (every 20 minutes or so....give or take) and this went on for the whole weekend. My internet connection is very good and stable (no dropouts).

Very annoying during gameplay as I had to quit and wait until it synchs .....before getting back in (to another game/server).

Anyone else notice this? Is there any kind of fix from my Steam account that can avoid this from happening during gameplay?

No comments means that I'm the only one who 'tried' to play TF2 over the weekend???

UPDATE (for anyone else running into this problem)....

Apparently, this issue is with Win 10 using Broadcom Ethernet drivers where the internet drops out intermittently.

Microsoft is aware of this and I'm guessing they're working on a fix.....until then, they're suggesting to use Win 8/8.1 drivers is compatibility mode.

I haven't tried it yet, but did find newer/alternate drivers over at Broadcom that seem to work a little better (can stay online for a little longer... ). https://www.broadcom.com/support/?gid=9

I'll probably try the 8.1 compatibility thing next and see if performance improves......just pisses me off when I'm in the middle of a game/battle and get kicked out!!
