Hey, i have narrowed my problems down to my router for sure. Its easily fixed by removing the router from the network and connecting directly to the modem, but i have 4 people who are using the net in the house 24/7. So this isn't an option.

Whenever i load my server list up in a steam game or just the normal steam list via the program, i get about 60-800 servers depending on how nice its being today, and even then i can connect to only 5 of them or so.

Reducing the MTU, disabling wireless. Everything i have tried. Im willing to go as far as buying a new router, but with my financial situation atm i could do with just fixing this. Im guessing the routers just stuggling under the load from loading tens of thousands of servers at once.

Thanks any help is appreciated.
