Connection Not Reliable Error

SBIE has nothing to do with that. Remember, you're in an isolated container.

It's possible that the client/server is looking for various feedback to measure the connection and it's confused by SBIE.

All as we can say is that the Steam client does work, as for anything else connecting via Steam, it's not tested or guaranteed. It's not something we are looking at currently.

It's best to install everything you need to on your host machine, then run it as sandboxed if you choose.

Can I get detailed instructions on what to do?

The error message is a cryptic hint that the game was unable to start its anti-cheating functions. Since a certain update in the past VAC has become quite aggressive and it requires you to grant it (the game using it) admin rights, either by running the Steam service or by running the game as administrator, outside of Sandboxie. That are your possible solutions - as far as I know. The error has nothing to do with an unreliable connection. Source? Tested by myself and I saw a clearer error message while playing Team Fortress 2 in Sandboxie.
