Steam games can't find servers. Empty Steam games can't find servers.

For some reason none of my steam games can find any servers. I have my filters all turned off and yes my internet is working. I have tried renaming my Clientblob (or w/e its called), re-downloading masterservers, and re-installing TF2 (before I realized it was affecting all my games). I have no clue at this point what could be doing it and help would be greatly appreciated. Might try re-installing steam... just too lazy.

Also the "Servers" option on steam doesn't find any either.

That's a perfect thing to google. Try googling exactly what you called this topic and look for a steam forums url.

P.S. You are supposed to delete the client blob registry rather than rename it - but I doubt that's the issue here. Normally that's a regular fix for players that time out.

Have been doing this for hours a day for the past 4 days and have tried at least 6-7 things suggested and none have worked.

Ill take a look sometime tomorrow when I'm home then. But reinstalling steam would most likely fix it, even if there is an easier way.

I just discovered I can connect to servers via console (connect -------). But I still can't see servers.

Make a Port Forwarding exception on your router (IP is probably 192.168.0.1 and login) for Steam. If it is a D-Link, it will give you a drop down and you can choose steam and it will open those ports.

This usually fixes my issue..

If you go into your router, if you have one, there is a section for Port Forwarding, what PF does is open ports to allow for programs (eg. steam) to access your network via these open ports (the ports for well-known programs like Steam arent those that intruders try to use to gain entry so there is no security risk)

If you have a Router is it a D-Link, Linksys, Cisco, what?

My router is a D-link but I still don't really understand what I'm supposed to do.

Well now my games have been royally fucked up. They won't even open now when I try to open any steam game an error message pops up.

IDK What happened Bugen but I no longer have my password saved and I forget it so I'll recover it some other time because I have to get to doing some stuff.

Thanks for your help anyway.
