This could be a firewall problem. Here's an exceprt from the FAQ on Evenbalance.com:


In general, if a connection can play the Game online successfully without PunkBuster, then there will be no need to make any changes to a firewall or proxy that may be in use when PunkBuster is Installed and Enabled. PunkBuster communicates over the Internet (and in LAN environments) using the same network channels created and used by the Game, and therefore requires no changes. Servers running with PunkBuster enabled should have UDP ports 24300-24399 open for PunkBuster to be able to operate to its fullest abilities

Several people on the PunksBusted.com forum had to set a specific port for PB...not sure why...I've had no problems whatsoever. See that forum for some ofthe threads.

Also, make sure you have the latest version of PB for your server as well as the latest client for yourself. Go here to get it: http://www.evenbalance.com/index.php. If you have PB set up properly, though, your server should be downloading it for you from the PB Master Servers.

Are you at least at version 1.4 of the game? You should have a PB folder.

Well, something weird is going on, so I'd advise uninstalling and reinstalling the game, and patching all the way to 1.51 again.
