Those are content server numbers which are listed here
http://store.steampowered.com/stats/content/
There are no IP's listed for any content servers and those IP's are
not listed anywhere either.

Oh... that might actually help, even if it doesn't
work at all times.
I'm a bit confused, though. Was "123 150 229" supposed to what?
Doesn't look like a valid IP number.
Many thanks!

That's an incredibly restrictive

datacenters are able to isolate specific patterns or
types of data and be very specific about their blocks
rather than just doing a blanket blocking.
Secondly, I seem to remember a way of manually setting
what server the update actually pulled from was posted
on this mailing list. Unfortunately, I also do not
remember and can't seem to find it. Does anyone
remember where it was that you could edit a file to
manually put in what server you wanted to pull from?

That was the kind of answer I was looking for. ¬¬
<at> Mart: Did a quick search and didn't find anything
about it. Do you remember any detail that might
help searching for it through the list?
<at> Jevgenjj: If only it had a list of IPs... but
most of them are just #numbers which reverse to
nothing concrete. So no luck there. Thanks for
sharing, though.
