IP Port Forwarding
#1
Hello, I recently have tried to setup a SRCDS (Source Dedicated Server) and it seem people can't connect or even see it on their server list. When I had my old router, it worked fine, this one probably should too. Additionally, I sometimes get "Bad Challenges," does that mean that people can actually ping it or see it? I've also did a port check for port 27015 (The one I have open on my router) and it says it is open. Although no one still can see it.
Command Line : c:\srcds\srcds.exe -console -game cstrike +map de_dust -maxplayers 16 -autoupdate.
I use to have it setup right, and use to be able to have people connect no problem. Any ideas? (I just tried a DMZ, still did not work, I don't think it is compatible with my router maybe?) My router is a Netgear FVS318 Tried it with my other netgear router and it worked fine.. but i don't want to use it. Also with the router I discovered it could be seen by game-monitor. I have recently discovered that people can connect if i give IP.
Quick Recap:
  • My old router showed up on my serverlist.
  • My ports are correctly port forwarded.
  • I can see my server on game-monitor, and says adding to master server.
  • I can see on my LAN server listing.
  • My router model is Netgear FVS318.

Okay, I guess I just can't see it on my Serverlist for public...

you could try the DMZ option and see if it shows up then, I'm afraid a lot of routers won't make it to the master list.

As said above, I figured out that I myself couldn't see it with my new router, my old router I could see it fine. I also did a DMZ, but when I added it to my "favorites" it didn't show up. But, when I told a friend to add it, it was fine. My old router worked fine and showed up on the "favorites" list. It's just strange, but I can live with it Toungue (all I can't see is that it's on favorites, it's under the "lan" tab though so it's all good). Anyways, thanks for the reply, although I really didn't need it (I probably should have deleted this thread, but I left it for reference in case someone had the same problem on me (with the same router model)).

Oops, sorry missed it Rolleyes

Well I'm afraid some routers will never make the server show up at the main list, why? I have no idea. But that's why I always try to avoid routers, they never work as you want them to. Big Grin
