Problem With Server

[ajpatl]

I connected my Ethernet cable dierctly to my computer and my server works fine online. I connect my Ethernet to my router then to my computer it doesn't work. I says couldn't allocate the dedicated UDP port. I've forwared the port right cause i used this site: http://portforward.com/english/routers/port_forwarding/Netgear/WGR614v5/Counter_Strike.htm
And my firewall is off. I have no idea why it wont work.

Here you go:
"C:\Program Files\Valve\HLServer\srcds.exe" -game cstrike +ip rfwk.bounceme.net -port 27015 +exec server.cfg

Yes the rfwk.bounceme.net is my ip adress cause it works while I connect it directly and I update it every time i start my server.

I'm sure it works without the +ip command since that command only accepts numeric characters

The router is your problem.
Use the HL2 steam server as game for port forwarding (if it's any different anyway), if it doesn't work look at the FAQ what you can do bout it.

Unless you have 2 NICs, you don't need an IP address in your boot line.
Also, read the FAQ.
Also, "rfwk.bounceme.net" is not an IP address, it's a domain name. What the -IP line looks for is a local IP address from which the server should be hosted. Unless your NIC knows that it's IP address is "rfwk.bounceme.net", the domain name wont work. And no, it's not possible for your NIC to know it has a domain name instead of an IP address.

try putting your local ip in your launch instead of your bounceme subdomain.

although you should be right, ive seen too many peoples problems get solved by specifying the local ip address in the launch params

OK, I've tried all these launch lines:
"C:\Program Files\Valve\HLServer\srcds.exe" -game cstrike +ip 69.109.235.121 -port 27015 +exec server.cfg NO SUCCESS

"C:\Program Files\Valve\HLServer\srcds.exe" -game cstrike +ip 69.109.235.121 +exec server.cfg NO SUCCESS

"C:\Program Files\Valve\HLServer\srcds.exe" -game cstrike +ip 192.168.1.2 -port 27015 +exec server.cfg WORKS ONLY ON LAN I WANT INTERNET

"C:\Program Files\Valve\HLServer\srcds.exe" -game cstrike +ip 192.168.1.3 +exec server.cfg WORKS ONLY ON LAN I WANT INTERNET

"C:\Program Files\Valve\HLServer\srcds.exe" -game cstrike +exec server.cfg WORKS ONLY ON LAN I WANT INTERNET

OK, thanks for the quick responses guys but I still need help! Any ideas?

PS:

These are the port i have forwarded:
1200-1200 : TCP/UDP
27020-27039: TCP/UDP
27000-27015: TCP/UDP

Well considering the fact you are on the same network as the server, it will always show up as LAN. Get a friend to test it .

[ajpatl]

I did they cant connect its only on LAN trust me.

[Spartanfrog]

Do you have sv_lan 0 in your cfg?

[ajpatl]

Yes it is.

[Drocona]

These are the classic router problems, please check out the FAQ, if it still doesn't work post back here.

[ajpatl]

Which FAQ? Can you post a link please? Thanks!
