Did you buy it from Steam or a DVD copy?

Can you connect to a server in plain Wars (i.e. without the mod being loaded)? You should do this first before going into MWLL multiplayer.

i created a profile in wars then played a multyplayer game with wars.. after that i started up MWLL 0.4.2 and it says disconnected from server..
same story w/ the crysis version.. everything updated to current version and taking in account the steps i needed to take...
maybe i should just redo the whole installation 
but hoping to find some pointers here 1st.

I am getting the exact same issue.
Retail copy of all 3 crysis games, installed and fully updated, modded and updated that too. CD Keys entered properly, and profiles made in vanilla launches first. Can connect in vanilla, but in the mod i am getting "disconnected from server" every time i connect to anything.

I'm having the same issue.. there seem to be only a handful of servers that show up (like 5-7?).  All but one are empty and when I click on the one that has people in it, I get a server disconnected error or the connection times out... if anyone has had luck fixing this please pm me or write it up in this thread!

Same issue here. I've heard a rumor that it is an error in how a patch was installed and it could be as simple as the patch installer accidently moving a file somewhere it should not be.

No, the patch didn't remove a file. Try repair build if that doesn't fix it check the Game.log for the reason why the connection failed. Also disable your Firewall if you have any or your Virus Scanner - they might be blocking your request.

If you are running AVG as your virus protection that may be the problem, especially with Windows 7 64 bit. Once I dumped AVG and switched to MS Security Essentials I never had the problem you are describing again. Just a thought.

I'll try troubleshooting with the ideas you've put out there, thank you all ^_^
let you all know in 8 hours or so if it works!

ok well I checked the game.log and the following was what I found after getting the 'disconnect from server' error:
CGameClientChannel::Release
[Warning] Unknown command: WarningBox
[net 00:40:55.293] connection requested to: 64.94.100.239:64087

This is a chunk of it.. I've repaired the build as previously mentioned earlier and get the same 'disconnect from server' error.

Getting the same error....so very interested in this thread 

Can connect to a server in Vanilla 1.5 Wars. Trying to connect in MWLL 4.3 get the same error...."cause=1; msg='Malformed packet' "

[Nytmare]

SOLUTION......at least for me         
   
Applied the vcredist_x64.exe = 64-bit patch as per the "IMPORTANT: Fix MWLL Launching Incorrectly" post
(sticky top of Known Issues Forum).

This corrected the "disconnected from server" error (...."cause=1; msg='Malformed packet' ")


Not sure if it is relevent but....prior to the above fix patch, the loaded MWLL Wars Menu did not list 4.3 on the bottom right of the Menu screen (showed 1.xxxx?).

After the patch, it lists the correct MWLL 4.3 version number.

I just did the fix the above post suggested and it works
