Client Dropped by Server

[=(eG)= Pvt.Ryan -TR-]

I consistantly get a Client Dropped by Server error whenever I try to join a server; it happens randomly and I can connect to other servers, but it gets frustrating. I was wondering if anyone could help me?

restart steam?

That works for the most part, but its a recurring problem that I've had for a few weeks, so I would like to know if any one can help me put an end to it for good.

Is this happening periodically? If not, steam could be updating, in my experience.

Does it say error verifying steam user id?

No, it just randomly says Client Dropped by Server when trying to connect. It only happens sometimes on only a few servers at a time. I can usually connect if I retry a few times, but this has never happened before.

Maybe it's the internetz. If it started happening recently, I don't believe it's steam. What you using? Like router, internet service, etc.

Router, and that would however make a lot of sense, because my router has been crapping out a bit recently... it gets to be very annoying.
