problems connecting to internet games in Half Life/Counter Strike

AlexAmery

Hello,

I finally got Half Life this weekend, and downloaded the C-strike install. Loaded everything, patched to newest version. When I try to connect to any internet game I get an error that simply says I can't connect. I installed it on my laptop, the reason I got it I'll be between houses for about a month, so I needed a game that would run decent on my work laptop, and it will connect just fine. I'm behind a linksys firewall, both machines running Win2k. Help would be appreciated.

Please help

I didn't find the right solution from the internet.
