I have a problem that when i try to run a server it starts and shows up as a server on the lan but not on the internet. The ip address of the server is my local lan even though at startup i set it to internet. My internet is currently set up through a router. IS the server not able to be an internet server unless it is directly connected to my modem or is it able to but i have to do settings with the router? If somebody can help me THANKS!

ir doesn't matter what name you use. its just so you know whats what.. so just like srcds would work. so you know why you have that port forwarded.

if your on the same lan as the server you will not be able to connect on the internet.
and what problem do you really have, you posted twice about how you need to downgrade, and now your saying you can't connect cuz of the router... please in one post, describe everything going wrong, it makes it loads easier for all of us, and easier for future reference as well.
