What ports do you have forwarded? What router are you using? Did you shut
off the firewall in your router? What ISP are you using? What is your ip
address? Do you have a static or dynamic IP (not important - I've run for
years using dynamic IP).

I spent quite a bit of time in low end cheap router hell and trying to get
my server on the list, and I found several things that will do it:

You don't have the proper port(s) forwarded.

You forgot to turn off the firewall in your router, or did not configure it
correctly.

You are using one of several routers known to cause problems. I had a Belkin
router about 3 years ago. I never got the damn thing to work..

You forwarded the port, but the IP of the box you are running the server on
had a different IP address (port not properly forwarded).

You need to run hldsupdatetool to update your server. This one bit me hard a
few years ago, I felt quite stupid once I figured it out.

You are using a wireless connection, or more specifically your server
connects to a wireless router that connects wirelessly to another router
(did that make sense? You can chain the WRT54G wirelessly if you use alchemy
or talisman or equivalent firmware, but some things just don't work). I
found this out the hard way also.

Subject: [hlds] Cant see my server in the master list

[ Picked text/plain from multipart/alternative ]
I cant see my server in the master list and neither can other people.
However i can see it in my favorites and i can join it. When im looking at
it in my favorites the latency is increadibly low, so i suspect it isnt
fully connected. I made sure that when i turn on the server i used
internet for the type of connection, and that my ports on my router were
set up correctly. What could be going wrong?
