Steam Dedicated Server for CS 1.6

[texboi]

I have portforwarded all the ports and they are working fine using the PFport Checker tool on portforwrd.com. Why can't people connect to the server from the internet? I've set it ut as an internet game of course. I use the ip on the main menu of the Dedicated Server. Is this not the internett ip, just the local ip? If so, where do I find the external ip for the server? Writing "status" in the server console gives me the same ip adress. The server does not work when by passing my router, using only the WAN cable form my modem. My internet service provider says there is nothing they can do, and using ip dedection from internet gives my the same ip I find in ipconfig, that should mean all the ports are working fine also. i've even tried to reinstall Dedicated Server. Please help.

192.168.1.6:27015 the ip for the server, it's up and runing now.

The IP you've put here is your IPv4 address, you need to give your friends the external IP address found on http://whatismyip.com and add the colon and host port after that one.

95.34.106.221:27015 can you connect?

I don't have CS 1.6, I'm sorry, but otherwise I'd definitely try it out. That one should work, if everything else is alright.

When I add that ip in my favorite list it just says server is not responding. I can however connect to the other ip, but no one on the internet can.

Nevermind. Now I can connect. But when I have connectet and write status in console within CS it says 192.168.1.6:27015. I can write connect 95.34.106.221:27015 and that works. Just have to find some one on the internet to try it out.

You can connect to your IPv4 address, because you're in the same network. Anyone else in the same network (LAN) can connect to your IPv4 -address.

External IP is for those who are not Local, but Internet. (aka the IP on http://whatismyip.com) and thus is required for Internet servers.

You can check your ports are set by for example going into
1. Open up cmd.exe
2. Type in ipconfig/all
3. Take the DHCP address (usually 192.168.1.1)
4. Paste that as your web-browser's URL -address and your should get to your router's settings.
5. See the manufacturer and model no. on the page (might help you find a tutorial for port forwarding.) This is the tricky part because it differs with the manufacturers and models.
6. Once you've found it, ensure that you've got

• Service Name: CS
  
• Start Port: 27000
  
• End Port: 27015
  
• Server address: <your IPv4 address> aka 192.168.1.6 if it's so on cmd.exe
  
• Protocol: UDP

• Service Name: CS2
  
• Start Port: 1200
  
• End Port: 1200
  
• Server address: your IPv4 address
  
• Protocol: UDP

• Service Name: CS3
  
• Start Port: 27030
  
• End Port: 27039
  
• Server address: your IPv4 address
  
• Protocol: TCP

7. Make sure it's enabled and save settings.

In some cases you might have to reboot your router for the changes to take effect.

Okie :) I hope it'll work!

It's kinda odd it doesn't mention the protocols though.

Does the service name have to be SRCDS? I've just called them Name 1,2,3 as you can see in the screen shot. The default names are:
FTP
HTTP
ICUII
IP Phone
Net Meeting/H.323
News
Quake II & III
Real Audio
Telnet
VPN-PPTP

But I can also type costum service name. That's where I've typed Name1 Name2 and Name3

The name doesn't matter, I just prefer to call 27015 the SRCDS port. :)

I'll just add that the protocols for all the port forwards are "TCP/UDP". That should be correct? You only see the protocol on the edit or add screen.

Well, I put how they should be above. Although having 'TCP/UDP' should allow both, so it should work either way.
