Could have been a temporary disconnect.  An ad can use up all the resources and bad things like waiting forever for a move that was already sent can happen...Refresh your page if the opponent is taking a suspiciously long time to move.  Don't do it frivolously though or chess.com will hit you for abandonment (or so I've read).  Here's the article:

Ultimately, it boils down to 2 things: is it reachable from a layer 3 standpoint, and is the port you're trying to connect to reachable from a layer 4 standpoint? If these are both true, then it will work. If either is not true, your connection will fail. Depending on the devices in the transit path, the possibilities that describe failure are almost limitless.
