Have you had your friends try to connect to your server by adding (your external ip) in the favorites menu? Verify that you have given them the correct external ip (sometimes they change)....go to http://www.ipchicken.com to get your current external ip. Start the console command without the +ip command. Also, are you running multiple computer through the router? Verify that you have forwarded the ports to the correct internal ip of the server computer. These can change too if the router is reset.
