You are hosting and playing on the same computer.
That is the problem.

isn't it like im running many servers on the same network but on different pc's so like if the server that is hosting the game servers local ip: 10.0.0.3 and the pc I play at that is on the same network and its ip is 10.0.0.12, I connect to 10.0.0.3 instead of the ip for others to join.

Well, I could host it AND play on it with other people on CSS, but not TF2. I don't know what's going on, but now I can't do it.
