![]() Thing is that steam is utterly retarded when it comes to network connections. But what I couldn't do was tell Steam to connect to the proxy so it could access the internet so that I could finally unlock the game again. Of course with my ISP still sucking big time I could not download the files.ĭuring this who crappy ISP period I regularly used tethering through my phone (using tetherbot) to browse the web, read email, etc. The result, I could no longer play Torchlight in offline mode because there was an update I was required to install. One time it managed to get through to the steam servers and saw there was an update for Torchlight. Another problem is that steam constantly tries to go out of offline mode. ![]() If I simply disabled all network connections on that machine it would prompt for offline mode within a minute. Due to the fact that the PC was connected to an internal network I had to wait for the Steam connection to timeout before it allowed me to go into offline mode, so I had to wait 5 minutes before the game would start. When I was playing the game Torchlight my ISP sucked big time and had a very unstable internet, or no internet connection at all. And steam in offline mode doesn't work as well as a lot of people claim. That direct link will still first start Steam.
