Use the server list from <a href="http://www.play4dead.com/ns2/" target="_blank">here</a> in the meantime. Substract 1 from the port it lists there and connect from console (if it's 27016, you have to put 27015).

try the IP without the last 5 digits after the colon. just the first 4 sets of 3 numbers.

This typically works for me although hitting "refresh" or joining a server and receiving the "full" error message resets the problem, meaning I have to close NS2 and wait.
For what it's worth this problem is with Steam, not Unknown Worlds. Team Fortress 2 does this for me all the time as well.
