Alien Swarm Dedicated Server - Not Listing

[mcyhanick]

Lets just start off by saying great forums! Learned a lot from here, search wise!

With that said, I am having issues getting my dedicated alien swarm server to show up in the server list. People can connect and join if added to their favorites.

Windows Firewall is DISABLED

Windows 7 Basic 32 Bit
2.00 GB RAM
2.6 GHz P4 Processor

Server Info: 98.233.246.70:27015 (external) | 192.168.1.104:27015 (internal)
Maxplayers 6

Ports Opened:
27015, 27005, 1200, 27020, 4380 TCP / UDP (BOTH)
27000 - 27015 TCP / UDP (BOTH)
27020 - 27050 TCP / UDP (BOTH)

192.168.1.104 is the pc that hosts the dedicated server. See my attached screenshots for proof...

As for my configs....

My Start up script

Code:

@echo off
:swarm
echo (%DATE% %TIME%) Starting server...
start /wait srcds.exe -game swarm -maxplayers 6 +map lobby -lan 0 -console +exec server.cfg
goto swarm

newmapsettings.cfg
Added setmaster commands because if I type setmaster in the console it says none. If I add it to my server.cfg and the map changes it loses the master servers. Dunno Why.

Code:

mat_motion_blur_enabled 0
mat_grain_enable 1
mat_grain_scale_override 1.5
mat_local_contrast_enable 1
ai_no_steer 1

crosshair 1
r_flashlight_topdown 1
r_flashlightscissor 0
fx_glass_velocity_cap 600
cam_idealyaw 0

c_maxpitch 360
c_maxdistance 1000
cl_retire_low_priority_lights 1
cl_interp_ratio 2

// this will allow your server to be listed in the server browser
setmaster add hl2master.steampowered.com

server.cfg (rcon section removed for security reasons)

You cant run it properly because the P4 does not support SSE2 Instructions

Keep in mind, you can't see the server in your internet tab if it is in your LAN tab. Try removing the setmaster line in your server.cfg, and just don't define it. It should work perfectly if other people can connect.
