My server had .190 as the last 3 digits of the IP and it would not show up in the in game browser. For months I was baffled as to why my server, which had been up for over 3 years and extremely popular, had become a ghost town. Finally after reading about the IP deal on Steam forums, I got a new block of IPs and changed the server IP to end in .1. Within two minutes (seriously) the server was full after putting it back up with the .1 IP. Now the server is full almost 24/7 and averages over 3000 connections a day, which is about where it was before the IP sorting fiasco started. If you want to test it, it's easy. Do a full listing in game and see how many servers you get. My guess is it will be around 11,000-12,000 or so. Then do a search with ASE and compare. ASE will show about 10,000 more servers than the in game browser does. My server with the high IP would always show up in ASE but never in the in game browser. I have a server in Amsterdam now that's suffering because of this IP foolishness and I don't have a way of getting a lower IP there.

Though, you are correct in that finding these IP's is tougher since the list STARTS it's order at .001 of the last octet.... and .255 simply is the last one queried. We drive w00t from the master servers -- Here is a case example of a .240 on the last octet showing up just fine. http://www.w00t.net/default.asp?s=Server&sString=%23drop+montreal%2Fqc+publi c+server&Search=W00T%21+Server+Search - Shane Robinett http://WWW.PHXX.NET http://www.Simple-Share.com - Share Something.
