Yah each time I get on nobody is online, right now nobody is online either. It's probably that I can't connect to the Master Server, is there anything I can do to fix it?

I believe you need to forward your 5029 port.

You don't need to forward your ports unless you want to host a netgame. Here is a link what port forwarding means and yes, port forwarding is a function that a router does.
http://portforward.com/help/pfprogression.htm and http://portforward.com/help/portforwarding.htm
Read up and learn. Then once you are ready, find out your router model number and get a guide from that same website if you want to host a netgame. Otherwise, to join one, you don't need to do anything.

Okay I read that and I understand more about the router, but yet confused at the same time. Sonict, I don't really want to Host Net games because nobody ever comes to my Net games, I just want to join other games but yet I can't do that. It's probably the router cause ever since I got the router, it takes longer to connect to the lobby in SRB2 but yet nobody is there.

You could be caught in a ban. Here is a link to the Master Server Ban list topic: http://ssntails.sepwich.com/mb/viewtopic.php?t=5313
To find out your ip, use this website: www.whatismyip.com
Also, I have saved you the trip of finding out if you are banned from the MS because I just checked and your ip doesn't exist there. Can you see this site fine? http://srb2.servegame.org <-- If so, then you shouldn't have a problem connecting to the MS and seeing netgames.

Sorry for the double post but I fixed my problem, all I had to do was re-install.
