Is there any way you can connect to the router over ethernet to be sure that it is a problem with the wireless network and not the entire home network connection?

Think your firewall got confused on some settings after jumping around on networks? I know Norton Internet Security will change settings after switching networks, so it could be a firewall problem. Either that, or maybe some setting got automatically changed within Steam.

Also check your port blocking on your router to see if CSS ports are blocked.

I run full wireless from home and work (wireless desktop -> wireless router -> radio dish ->tower) and don't really have any problems except with extreme weather.

I just use a wireless USB stick for my desktop instead of running cat5.

Check the router for a "gaming" tab, some have them, and play with those entries.

i run wireless (n) and its fine.

I get that error when im too far from the router, the firewall is blocking steam, or i have to reset the router and/or modem

we have to run a static IP in our house because we use a control system thats run through the router to control alot of stuff in the house (TV, music, lights, temperature) if the IP resets the whole thing crashes.

since you can run WoW i'm thinking maybe its just something with the game. have you tried to run another steam game like half life deathmatch and if all else fails try reinstalling and if it is something with the ports it should do all the ports when you reinstall it
