In the config of the game , did you specify the type of connection you have? <IMG SRC="smileys/wave.gif">

What do you mean with "what type of connection"? Do you mean the speed of my modem?

Try running another internet app. IE for example. In the background. Some ISP's are rigged to detect people connecting to gameing sites. WON etc and disconnect you. Having another connection running (pref low bandwidth) can fool your ISP and connections are not terminated. 
 
Unless CS is disconnecting you (i doubt that) in which case your gonna have to live with it !
