TF2 Server no longer works.
#1
Recently my Team Fortress 2 server has stopped functioning in the sense that nobody can connect to the server anymore. According to some of the people who play on my server, it also doesn't even show up on their lists anymore.

This is the command line I have used for quite a while with no issues:

C:/SteamCMD/tf2/srcds.exe -console -game tf +maxplayers 32 +map gm_temple_v6chapel


So far I have:

1.) Checked that my ports were open, they were
2.) Restarted my router, did nothing
3.) Tried putting my external IP in the command line, and got the couldn't allocate server ip port error. I even tried setting my router to DMZ mode and still got that error, strangely.

I'm running out of ideas so I thought I would ask for help online.

Double check the basics; 1) Make sure windows updates did not re enable firewall. 2) Make sure your IP is still the same, both local and on the web, if not it should be static.

I know Windows Firewall isn't causing it because I can turn the firewall off completely and it doesn't solve the issue. IP is already static too.

The ports all show that they are open whenever I have the server running, so I know port forwarding is working ok.

Did you check for updates?

Do you mean updates for the server or windows? Either way, both are up to date. I'm starting to think there is something internally wrong with the router itself, and I may not be able to fix it.
