[Resolved] No One Can Join

[Zverina]

Since the recent TF2 update, I've gotten the LAN only error and unable to load steam library error, but now that I've fixed that, no one is able to join my server (and it apparently isn't online at all, according to gametracker). Before the update and all of these errors, the server was running smoothly and didn't have any problems. I am able to join the server myself and all of that, but no one else can.

Code:

Server OS: Windows 7 Home Premium
Processor: AMD A6-3620 APU with Radeon(tm) HD Graphics 2.20 GHz
RAM: 8 GB
Game: Team Fortress 2
Start Up Command: J:\srcds\orangebox\srcds.exe -console -game tf +hostport 27015 +maxplayers 32 +map mvm_decoy
Admin Mods: Sourcemod

I've googled through different threads and sites with no luck so far.
Forwarding ports, done and no luck.
Using a static IP, done and no luck (also worked with dynamic IP before errors came along)

I have a few friends who've favorited the server before-hand and say the server doesn't show up in their favorites and by giving them the connect command (with the public IP, yes) they get the "Connection Failed After 4 Retries) error.

Hoping for a fix to get my server running again because not being able to play MvM on a non-laggy server with cool people for 3 days sucks.

Apparently the server works properly when I attempt to just use my modem, but switching to my router, it dies out.

Did you forward the ports on the router?

What's your startup command line?

As stated in the OP, yes they are open.

These are the ports I have opened (if you want to see them).

The port forwarding is wrong.

I've seen several people in other topics do this with the internal and external ports. Also that it doesn't define UDP or TCP. Is that the only section in your router that has port forwarding.

Look in your router "Port Forwarding Ranges" or something similar to that and put the ports there.

[Zverina]

It doesn't show whether or not it's UDP or TCP in that section, but where you add the ports, it does (and it's both for each one). The ports have worked like this before the TF2 update ~3 days ago though, so I don't see why it's the ports now.

I've fixed it.

Apparently I had to switch the internal IP address for just one of the forwarded ports instead of all three.
