Problem with GMOD10 and srcds

[Kappah]

Hopefully you guys can give me any clue as to what's wrong, i get the following error message when trying to join my own server, i also think it's not in the general internet list i only find it at lan.

Engine error: Couldnt allocate dedicated server IP port.

Any of you guys have any idea what's wrong here? any help is deeply appreciated, ive tried opening alot of ports but none of it did the trick.

Sincerely- Kappah.

Edit: Im using windows vista 32 bit

Steps ive taken without success.

Disabled firewall.
Enabled every port steam uses with firewall on.
Relogging and restarting the computer.
Refreshing my internet, ive talked to my isp they werent blocking the game nor steam.

Well the one thing I need to check what you did is edited out of the picture....

Also please look at what section you post in, this has nothign to do with steam updates, moved to the correct section.

Sorry about that Drocona, well here i go.

I guess people here are nice fellas, anyway what i edited out was my IP 10.0.0.7

Got a different one now and if you want that ill pm it to you.

Edit: i have now followed the steps for port forwarding and it didnt help one bit.

After struggling for 48 hours with little to no sleep im giving up, atleast for now.
Now there's another problem when i tried reinstalling it, how much bad luck can one sod get!!.

I have said this many times its really a headache to host your own server on a home connection.

Do you have a static IP for your home connection?

[Kappah]

I have a static IP yes, as ive had to port forward and that was one of the steps required.
