Security module on steam

[slimjim04]

when i join servers i used to only have to wait 6-7 seconds while i downloaded the security module to get in the game, i just formatted my computer now i have to wait 24-30 seconds, how do i fix it back to 6?

[slimjim04]

It currently doesn't stop many hackers right now since VAC(Valve Anti-Cheat) hasn't been updated since August.

 

[slimjim04]

do you know how to fix? to make to go back to 6 seconds?

For all I know, you can't. Their might be some stuff you can tweak but you might have to wait till master_america comes to this thread.

You could try tweaking your rates.

If you have a good connection try:
rate 20000
cl_updaterate 50

try rate 20000 and set your connection to t1/t3 in steam options.

set your connection to t1/t3 in steam options.

I had that problem, and thats how i fixed it.

Acculy try rate 25000 its a universal rate to help pretty much anything...

The server can't use more than 20000 rate. Using any higher will result in, don't quote me on this, a drop to default rate.
