Please take this to the Steampowered.com Forums or please list [OT] in the subject. On your way check the settings of your Steam client and turn the speed down in there. That is suppose to directly control how many servers it queries at a time when you refresh.

I cant get server lists if I lose connection everytime hit refresh, and it cuts off whatever else I have going that is connected to the net. I consider this a big problem. And now that I think about it, I know this didnt occur before because just last week (on previous WinXP install) I was browsing server for custom maps to play. So I really doubt its the router.
