So far all the people I have asked to test can see it.

68.198.18.243, that's the ip, correct?

[uasmatrix]

Yes, correct

Sorry, I'm out of ideas. And that doesn't happen often.
As I can see you're hosting a UT-server as well, without any problems. So this has to be about srcds only.

Any plugins? Try to remove them completely.

Yes, I host an Unreal 1, Minecraft and TS3 server.
I already tried removing all the plugins I have multiple times. I also even installed a fresh copy of the server with nothing custom at all and the same thing happened.

There's two more random people I don't know joining right now as well, so others can see it for sure.

Alright, Cyba and I managed to fix my server. We first updated my router's firmware, which reset my router's settings. After that, I reopened any ports that needed to be open. It then appeared to work, and everyone could join and query it. Our theory is that when I forwarded the ports previously, I may have somehow messed up some settings, and the firmware update then cleared those settings which made everything work. Thank you Cyba and members of the Steam community who helped! This issue is fixed.
