Awaiting Key Code Authorization

[SomEThinG]

This is what happen when I try to join our server(beginner, killhouse, killbox)  at dome. I can play without any problem when I'm at home or play at other server.

Anyone else has this problem?

I have personally never seen this problem, but I did do some searching after reading your topic and found that quite a few people have had this issue and most of them fixed it using this:  Try in .cfg: seta cl_connectionAttempts "30" - this will give the connection 30 seconds, and normally fixes the problem. 

 

I am no expert at these matter, but it seems editing this in your .cfg will allow more time for the issue to fix itself while you are trying to connect.

 

Is this a steam purchase of the game, or boxed version?

my cod frequently does the awaiting keycode authorization and will connect  very quickly. I would give Phoenix's suggestion a try, it sounds like a timeout issue.
