Dedicated server does'nt show up on LAN or internet..please help

[Trumple]

I'm really sorry if there has been a ton of questions about this...I have searched but there seems to be no solution...
I just recently managed to setup my own server (finally! ) by opening ports and whatnot. People can connect via the 'connect' command, but the strange thing is, the server dosnt even show up on the LAN list or on the Internet list!
I have opened three ports for the server and the main ones for steam...is there some special port or something I am leaving out?
Thanks for the help in advance

If you can connect using the connect command then IP, you just have to wait for the steam servers to update to have your server listed. If you set the ip or port in your startup command, the server won't show up in your lan tab
