    	    <description><![CDATA[If tunnelling and asking the network admin to allow it are a no-go, then you're mostly out of luck.

If the system that they have in place allows NAT-PMP or UPnP, however, you may have luck requesting a lease for the port manually using a UPnP/NAT-PMP client, and refreshing it every now and then in a loop until you close TF2.]]></description>

Nope. All the game data (player positions, events, etc) is all UDP. TCP is just used for state information (players connecting/disconnecting, joining team, changing class, chat messages, etc). Either way the data would be coming from 2 seperate hosts from the perspective of the server, and it wouldn't be able to handle that.]]></description>

    	    <description><![CDATA[Howdy all!

Got a slight problem causing minor inconvenience. It would seem some of the steam ports are blocked and as a result I cannot connect to the majority of TF2 servers. There are some war servers I have no problem joining whatsoever. 

Any help other than ask your network administrator to unblock would be greatly appreciated!]]></description>
