Re: [hlds_linux] Server not showing up in favorites
I don't know about hlds servers, but srcds servers occasionally don't show up if they have been restarted several times in a row... another restart after waiting a few minutes seems to fix that problem.

Re: [hlds_linux] server not showing up in browser
One more note, alot of people use simply low-end routers for their
house, after seeing this problem i upgraded my linksys to a dd-wrt
install and i had zero problems with refresh and such, *most* people
won't do this, so providing a hard limit on the query's, even tho that
would slow the retrieving of server info down a bit, would be beneficial
to game host's and users alike, so i second Kevin's idea of putting in a
hard limit of the query rate.

Josh, this is a very typical symptom of your router getting UDP
overloaded
as it tries to handle the query traffic.
To prove this, just bypass your router temporarily and hook up
directly to
your modem (assuming you have a stand-alone modem).
The main thing you can do is to reduce your steam connection rate
lower, go
down to modem-56k setting to start.
You must exit Steam for the setting to take effect so restart and see
if you
get a more predictable list of servers.

server
UDP querys per second" in the registy perhaps) specifically to address
this.
Setting the Steam Download rate is effectively the same thing but that
impacts content download as well which has nothing to do with this
problem.
You should also see if you can update the firmware in your router. If
that
doesn't fix it then it wouldn't hurt to call the support for the
router mfg
and see if they have a fix available. Since the Steam client is free,
they
can install and test this easily themselves to see the problem (if
they say
they don't see it on that model then they are just messing around, this
problem is very repeatable).
The only other thing you can do to help this is to use filters on your
browsing to reduce the traffic (or replace the router).
I use a dlink DI-604 and a linksys BEFSR41 which work ok but I do know
that
a number of low-end home routers have this exact problem (Belkin,
Actiontec
and BrightPort/Creative for example).
As far as I know, this problem doesn't have much of an effect on servers
behind the router but low-end routers may have other server related
issues
as we have all seen.

Subject: [hlds_linux] server not showing up in browser
Hi all,
I have a problem with some of my TF2 servers, they are not showing up
in the browser list for some of my clients, as well as myself. There is
1 person out of 30+ that see 2400+ servers with the only filter being
"server not full". However, with me, if i have no filters at all, i see
about 900-1400ish servers depending on the well i can't figure out what
it depends on but every refresh is different. Naturally each time it is
different for me which servers come up. And i don't see mine. I have
excellent hardware as well as a great data center (chicago backbone to
level 3). Any ideas? My clients will leave if their servers do not show
up in the list so i need to prove that this is a steam issue, or get it
fixed either way.
