New here and need help

[VooDoo09]

Alright.

I have a BEFSR41 router. I've forwarded the ports by the instructions on portforward.com. For each of them I chose both for the TCP and UDP options.

This is what my launch command line looks like:

-console -game cstrike -tickrate 100 +fps_max 600 +maxplayers 20 -port 27015 +exec server.cfg +map de_dust2

Now when I host the server, this is the IP: 192.168.1.101:27015

On the start up line, If I put -ip 192.168.1.101 it says it cannot allocate the UDP port. So I take it out, server loads, but only me and my brother (who's on the network) can join it.

Any help woule be awsome ..

Thanks,

What IP is your external? did you give that to a friend to check it out?

ok .. my external is 65.32.133.119 and the -port 27015 is in the command line

Is the server online? mind you, unless you intend on changing the port, you do not NEED -port switch in there. though it won't cause a server to not go online.

[VooDoo09]

yea its online .. so take the -port line out?
