Dods server no longer works...
#1
Ok, I had a server up for a little while working and running just fine. I didn't forward any ports or do anything special. I just read the guide on windows srcds installation and it worked like a charm. Now, however, after the OrangeBox update, I've had some problems.

I played around with many things and nothing seems to work. I've had the server in several conditions (ranging from being able to be seen, but not connect by the master list. to not being seen by the master list, but able to connect through LAN. to not being able to see it at all.). I finally tried forwarding ports and that was quite a challenge.

my router config currently looks like this:

and dmz:

EDIT:
ipconfig /all looks like this:

the run.bat file looks like this:
C:\srcds\orangebox\srcds.exe -console -game dod +map dod_orange_cubes_b_1_4 -maxplayers 16 -autoupdate

you have port 27015 forwarded twice. You can't do that.

is that what I should change it to? because that configuration doesnt' work either.

Here is my dods srcds.exe output. Tell me what I should forward based on this:

Isn't there any guide out there about how to use srcds to make a server for the updated dods? maybe I'm doing something wrong?

What do you mean it uses the same ports? what should I change it to exactly? If you notice the post above the previous post I had ports 27015-27015 forwarded. Is that what you mean? would someone kindly write a brief guide on how to get a dods server working? I would appreciate it so much!
Thanks guys!

Use your local IP when connecting via the LAN.

Well, we can connect from the LAN tab but not from the main list. I want people on the outside world to be able to play.

If you've tried port forwarding and DMZ and they don't work... you are either doing it wrong or your router is busted.

Buy a new router.

Do you have any kind of firewall on? and let Garrysmod and also ur dedicated server let join your server. Also check if you can see your server into lan. i'm not sure try to connect 127.0.0.1:27015 ( Means localhost)
