I can't find any TF2 servers under the "Internet" tab, neither in the Steam client server browser, nor in the in game one. The tab has 0 servers in it. I've tried oh so many things, and I am desperate for help. Any ideas on how to remedy this?
Did you look in your "Filters"? You maybe set something wierd so it cant find anything that matches your search.

No funky filters, I made sure of that.
It happens to several of my friends. They can join games fine but the server list is mad
Afaik it's a router / firewall issue.

Yeah, I have a Netgear router and I've heard this brand in particular causes problems.

OP, do a few servers show up, and when you refresh, none at all? That's the problem I have.

Yes. I also have occasionally slow internet speed. I also have a Netgear router. Wat do?
Please help, i want to be able to play again.
I've also got the same problem with a netgear router.
Try opening a cmd box and typing "ipconfig /flushdns"
Usually works for me.

Best solution I've found is to get a good amount of servers in your favorites, the favorites tab seems less prone to not loading. Then be fast about getting into a server and fast if you need to change server, I've found that if you wait too long you won't be able to. If you can't get into one and the server list doesn't load then load up your own map, wait a couple minutes and try again.
It's kind of a pain but I've gotten used to it.

You could also try this, I've never heard of it but it's probably worth a shot.

So its a router problem... I've always wondered what caused it. Anyway, my fix is basically the same as what t man posted, except I go under the history tab for ALL games, so I don't have to keep adding servers to my favourites. Whenever I search for JUST TF2 servers, that causes the server browser to stop working. When there are other games in the list, it works fine.
