Multiplayer crash

Hello,

Just reporting an big issue with the game from a MP standpoint.

Patch 1.10. Wifi Connection WPA key. Win Vista.

When I finish a turn and my Wifi connection disconnects me, I go straight to the lobby and see 0 0 0 games everywhere.

Sometimes I see Connection Problem, retry for the purpose of uploading the game turn result. Than there is no problem. Sometimes I just get the aforementioned behavior. Which forces me to download again the turn and replay it.
Basically I get an unfair advantage over my opponent and it also annoys me because sometimes the turn result is much different.

I will post more when I get more experience with this issue. It happened to me like 4 times over 30 games already (1 week play). I already got the Retry connection dialog about 10 times.

It sounds like some sort of connection issue with the server. If you are using wifi try using a wired connection as wifi often has issues connecting. Its fine for web content & mail but not good for games.
