Why is steam blocking my purchases?

Do you need wifi for steam?
Offline Mode allows you to play games through Steam without reconnecting to the Steam Network every time you wish to play - this is particularly useful if you do not plan on playing over the internet and would prefer not to download new updates for your single-player games.

Can blocked steam players see your profile?
What is a useless countermeasure? Blocking blocks the viewing of your profile and direct communication. They can not view your profile, so can not see the comments, though they could still get a notification but that is it. Communication is still blocked on Steam and they still can not read your profile.

What is the best wifi for steam link?
For best performance we recommend using a router that supports the 802.11ac protocol. A router that supports the 802.11n via a 5GHz signal will be the next best choice. To optimize your network: Choose the 5 GHz WiFi band over the highly congested 2.4 GHz band.
