Drocona thx it help me with some things, but it didnt help me with all of my problems. like server on lan not internet ( /o/ )

i now know i have to give my exterminal ip to my friends, but why it cant be the ip that the server has!!!!

[Drocona]

The Ip can't be the Ip your server has because that's a network (local) IP. Other people cannot connect to that.
Only you can from your network.

[hannibal]

so you cant have a public server then.

my server lags can you help

[Drocona]

I didn't say you can't run a public server, I said that the IP of the server is not what it shows in console for every other player in the world. The worlds IP to use is http://www.whatismyip.com

I can help with lag if you post:
1. Server machine specs.
2. Upload bandwidth.
3. server settings.

[hannibal]

well i need my server to not to lag, its horrible
and i think i would maibe put on it rpg-mod and deathmatch if it doesnt lag!

so i need help with server settings maibe!

the thing is that when i start my srcds short-cut the fps is like 500, its too high.
and it connect to the server list fine, but it is on lan!
then i give my friends to exterminal ip, but they say this:

1 connecting
2 connecting
3 connecting
4 connecting
4 tries connection failure

it come always, i tried looking at gametiger.net but it isn't there.
i am sure that i am giving my friends the correct ip, but something is wrong with the SRCDS
i have all these in it:

"C:\Program Files\Valve\Hlserver\srcds .exe" -console -game cstrike +ip xxx.xxx.x.x -port 27015 +maxplayers 10 +map de_dust2 -tickrate 33

is there anything important missing or some where else.

maibe my SRCDS is not up to date i am not sure, i have updated it once.
what is the way to see if it is up to date, because my hldsupdatetool says:

getting version 17
. . . . . . . . . .

shuts down ( /o/ )

there are some problems! Help Help

[Drocona]

omg did you read my post at all?

1. You have to forward ports http://www.portforward.com to make people connect to it.
2. FPS 500 is good, 800+ is too high.
3. read my other post before this one

[hannibal]

yes i have port forwarded 27000-27015, 1200, 27020-27039 and then puten my lan ip.

is there any other ports.

here is the server.cfg file, can you check if it is all right!

what is upload bandwith, where is it?

[hannibal]

i dont have then a DMZ could that be the main problem?

[Drocona]

Upload bandwidth is the speed of your connection, not download but upload.

Your minrate is higher than your maxrate, maxrate MUST always be higher than your minrate.

Ports should be correct but as other people still can't connect there is either somethign wrong with your router or with a firewall or anti-virus utility.
You shouldn't need DMZ but if all else fails you have to use it. If it still fails get a modem and a switch from the store and you're done.

Also there's a button in the lower right corner of every post you make called edit, please use it so you don't double/triple post. It reads easier and it won't be such a mess, thanks.

[hannibal]

man this is hard to get a fucking server working,

i think the problem is that i have my firewalls stopping people from joining and i dont have DMZ to get these people to allow to join.

but anyway i am going to my friends house and he has server that works so i get the need that i need, maibe.

how can you add rpg-mod on to the server?

i have downloaded rpg-mod and deathmatch, but i dont know what i should do, there is no readme
