    Hi guys,

    on my m18x, I can't find any server on internet while I'm in a game like CSS or Garry's mod. If I try to search directly from steam, I find over 1k servers. But, not in the game. I still have my favorite servers though and I see my friend's server. I don't think it's a m18x issue, but I just wanted to specify it. It happens sometimes after a fresh install of Windows, but it comes back after a short time. For me, after a month, it still not working. Anyone know how to solve this issue?

    Yes maybe. When I alt + tab after I opened a game, I always see a Firewall screen that ask me if I want to give access to the game. I always click to give it.

    I'll try disabling my Firewall when I'll get home.

    Thanks for your answer.
