Strange

When I DMZ myself through my firewall, I get about 30,000 servers mo
problems. The output from the qstat is as it should be.

When I turn the DMZ off, the output format changes to become like this
below. It just keeps on going listing lots like this.

It does seem to be firewall related. When connected through the firewall
I never see more than 4000. I just did a test by-passing the firewall
and saw almost 19000 servers. It seems the master server is providing
all the server names to the browser. The browser then queries each
server. If the browser does not get a response it does not display the
server. Thus the 4000 server I would see were just those the firewall
let through.

I also tried setting my steam speed to 56k modem to see if a smaller
flow would perform better, but it made no difference. My concern is if
this is a common problem a large percentage of the 118,000 users of
steam may only be able to see a very small fraction of the servers out
there.

Your issue may be your local firewall limiting the number of UDP/TCP
sessions. The server update will set most home/consumer firewalls off as
an attack (udp flood) and it can easily quit accepting new connections
until the old ones are gone. I have the same issue when I game on my
Netscreen firewall since it limits to 2000 active sessions. I just
simply connect to my Pix firewall and get the full list.
