[cod] 1.2a patch and connection timeout

[Cod Admin]

I tried the /etc/hosts part and it worked for me... But it  also can be a fluke of luck.. 
  
  Lets remove the /etc/hosts part and see if users can come in.... Yes damn it is  working so no the /etc/hosts file is no solution...:-(

I have the same problem. After playing a whole day without any problems 
suddenly players can't connect anymore...
This is what I try to fix it:
 - restart COD2 server
 - reboot Linux server
 - disable firewall
 - disable/enable Punkbuster
 - /reconnect command in console
Nothing, players still getting connection timeouts... I gave up... and 
then... the next day players can connect again!?

Ryan if you need more information let me know....

Grtz,
