CS:S and DD-WRT

I'm using a Linksys WRT54GL flashed with DD-WRT v23 SP2. Ever since switching from my D-Link DI-624, I'm seeing a very small server list in Steam games. Normally I see at least 1600, but now I only see a max of 300. All settings are kept the same in CS:S.

From what I understand, it's not a matter of port forwarding because that's not required unless you're running as a server. Also, I didn't need to forward the port ranges on my DI-624 and it was fine there. Anyone know what settings in DD-WRT I should play with?

Oh and I should mention, decreasing the TCP/UDP timeouts didn't help.
Max Ports: 4096
TCP Timeout: 90
UDP Timeout: 90
 
I double checked to make sure that I have the same filters on as before. Even with the same filters I see way less than what I should be seeing. My filters are:

< 100 Ping
> 0 players

With the filters off I still don't see a lot of servers I used to see. This is not a problem with Steam, it's my router.
 
Yes they did. However the pings are a bit higher than normal which I can only assume is a fault of the connection. I'm on a different ISP now because I'm not living at home for the time being. Last night pings were much higher than normal, but the servers are there.
 
What I have set up now is the WRT54GL hooked up to the DI-604 (don't have the DI-624 because I'm not living at home) acting as a switch/AP while the DI-604 is doing all the routing. My pings are still extremely high and I only see around 10 servers total (no filters) with lower than 100 ping. Although I don't experience any lag, my own ping on servers is between 110-160. Normally at home I'm around 40 on either the DI-624 or the WRT54GL. I'm starting to suspect my connection now.
