Failing to connect to CS Network

[scoops]

for 2 days now every time i launch the game and try to get into a comp or casual match, i get the blue bar of death saying i cant connect to the network.

ive tried messing with network settings, but nothing seems to work. only affecting cs2

maybe try reinstalling the game could be something wrong with ur files / delete config and try reopening could be anything really

have you restarted your modem/router/pc?

consider that your ISP could be blocking needed ports

Yeah, I tried hard restarting the router. Went into custom network & firewall settings and opened it up temporarily, still nothing. Will check on port forwarding for cs, I'm not sure. Ty!

Will try this now, really didnt want to wipe everything with a reinstall but it looks like I'll have to. Appreciate the insight
