Next time use the status command to see what is the public IP for your servers. You may have a surprise and see that different servers are seen by Valve as having same public IP, a new "feature" introduced since few days. Restarting the servers will fix the problem.

Thank you... while researching further, I just discovered 6 of our 8 TF2 servers weren't showing up in the Valve server browser. I then found an additional game update since the last one after re-running the hldsupdatetool. I don't get it, somehow 6 of the 8 servers didn't have this update, yet the other 2 did; this in spite of the fact that they were all updated at the exact same time and all showed the correct version numbers in HLSW. Since running the hldsupdatetool again, all the servers are now appearing in the server browser and filling up. Bizarre. Sorry for the false alarm, but if anyone else is having this trouble, you may consider re-running the hldsupdate tool as well.

( L4D2 SteamgroupsBorked?) I've actually seen the opposite on my server. It was struggling a little before the patch. We had to seed every day for a while. Now it's got players around the clock. And this pattern has happened several times now. I wouldn't worry too much. Just seed on your servers and stick through it and you'll eventually get that traffic back.
