Hi,
I've just installed SRCDS for the first time and it runs... sorta. First of all it initializes, which is good, it also connects to Steam's servers and gets VAC authentication, it also adds the master servers. The server is visible from the Lan tab in server on a different client on the internal network. However, when I try to resolve the server through my external IP, it doesn't show up. I know this isn't a problem with my firmware, because just last summer, I was using the same router, firmware, and configuration to run a HL1 (CS) dedicated, and it was completely fine (except for the cable modem latencies). As a test to see if this was SRCDS specific, I decided to run up HL1DS again, HL1DS could not be seen on the Internet or Favourites either, which leads me to believe it could either be my ISP blocking the use of cable IPs for Dedicated Servers or theres a tiny crucial detail that I have overlooked. Any help/suggestions/comments would most appreciated. My external IP is: 70.28.227.63. As of 6:16PM, SRCDS is running Day of Defeat: Source under the hostname "UNICEF Server".

ps: I've attached a couple of screenies to help give you a picture of my router config.
