[SOLVED] Others can't connect to my server

[n0rd]

Hey!

I have recently installed both HldsUpdate and srcds the way you have instructed in the ENG and Danish tutorials (CSS tutorials) and I'm positive that I got it all right. My goal is to run a css server for about 10 people for private fun games on the Internet NOT LAN.

It works fine when I connect but when friends tries to connect over the Internet they get "Server Not Responding" could you please try and help me solve my problem

These is the ports that I have opened:

In the image you see "till" that means "to" and Båda means that it's both TCP/UDP.

The game is CSS that I want to host

This is my PC/Network/bandwith info:
OS: Win7 x64 Pro
CPU: Quad Core 3,2GHz
RAM: 4gb
Bandwidth: 24mb/s

I have the .bat and server.cfg that you guys have made so that wouldn't be the problem

The .bat start command is set runcmd=C:\srcds\orangebox\srcds.exe -console -game cstrike +map de_dust2

//nord

Did you give them this ip?

yes I gave them my IP and they tried to add/find it in the server favorite list by adding 78.70.110.167:27015. But it didn't work

Try disabling your Windows firewall. Do it momentarily to see if it works.

my windows firewall is already turned off, Im using F-Secure as my firewall and I have already tried to disable it completely without no success :/

Does it give you the opportunity to allow certain programs? If so, that should do the trick too. Also make sure the portwarded ports points to your servers IP address.

Also your screenshot from the first post. I don't understand why you make so mange ranges. Just do a 1200-1200 "both" and a 27000-27050 "both". That's two feilds and it's easier to manage, also it insures that you haven't forwarded the same port twice.

I have already done that F-Secure allows srcds.exe both in and out. I changed my portwarded till what you told me it still doesn't works...

you also mentioned "Also make sure the portwarded ports points to your servers IP address." how does I do that so it points to my IP?

btw when I want to start my server I run the SRCDS Guardian 3 which in it's turn starts srcds.exe which I hope is the right way.

The problem is that your rules cross eachother and that confuses the router. Make one rule that covers the whole port range and delete the others.

just saw that my router had some weird option set to my internal IP but I fixed it so it's all solved now.

Thanks realchamp and Mooga for your time

btw how do I run several servers from just one PC/server let's say one CSS and one DoD

You start the second server with the following param: -port 27025. Now this server will start up on port 27025 and the normal server will start on 27015(default). I've increased the port with +10 because it shouldn't get any change to conflict with anything else. You could theoretically set it to 27016, but I would recommend +10 all the way
