Steam is down?

Umm... it seems like I have no access to the Steam servers. I was on this morning, but now it tells me I have no connection and I can't even see who's online. I got into a TF2 match for a split second, but was then kicked for lacking a VAC server connection. Other people are on, as I heard voice chat upon entering the server. WTF, guys. Any help is greatly appreciated.

 
I dunno. My computer is dead since Monday. I can't play anything ecpept HL2 and TF2 on my laptop

Anyway, I got some problems with connecting with the steam community, so I think there might be something wrong with the servers.

 
So, the answer to my problems... shutting the lid to the laptop. When I shut it and brought it back up, the servers were "down" but when I exhausted every possible reason for the loss, I had a stroke of genius and shut the lid. When I brought it back up BOOM, you have 11 friends online and blablablabla. I mean WTF? Just because I shut the lid.

 
Ah, antenna wasn't activating. Try disabling the power saving modes on the wireless card to prevent the problem from recurring.

 
That's the thing. I had access to the Internet and everything, just not the Steam servers. I opened up Firefox and searched for the answer to my problems, but came up with nothing. That why it doesn't make sense. I HAD internet access, but no Steam...

 
Steam always seems to be the odd one out. I often find myself without internet connection on anything but magically Steam is working perfectly.

 
I got this problem, again...

(it isn't my pic, just found it, but it's pretty the same thing)

I searched for the forums but I simply cannot fix this :/

Any idea?
