Hi everyone , I have a question about setting up a css server {why cant anyone see it??} ...I have run the updatetool installed all files correctly ,forwarded all the necessary ports/tried DMZ..updated the firmware , disabled firewall's { ive checked/rechecked and checked everything numerous times} just to be sure i wasnt missing something. anyways a little info on the setup....I am behind a linksys BEFSR41 V2 router { which I ran a css server through once before with np}...I connect to the server machine via remote desk top so there is no monitor or keyboard connected or i would have skipped the router all together.....as i said before i used to run a server off this same machine a couple years ago and recall having an issue like this before but cannot remember what i did to correct it...its just a small server i wanted to setup for a few friends who are new to css ...thought it would be a nice place for them to practice before jumping into the bigger servers. anyways any thoughts ,suggestions , or ideas are welcome.
thanks all for your time. BiO
OH and by the way ive done all kinds of related topic searches and tried many ideas ive found but with no resolve.

list all the necessary ports you have forwarded. and I AM THE SMARTEST!

Post a screen shot of port forwarding.

[biohazard0669]

1200-1200 udp
27000-27015 udp
27020-27020 udp
27030-27039 tcp
27015-27015 tcp
27011-27011 tcp and udp
appreciate you taking a look at it for me.

I have 2 machines with ports forwarded for CSS top IPs are my main gaming machine the other are the servers IP

[Mooga]

You have the same ports forwarded twice.
You have the same ports forwarded to different IPs.

You can NOT do those. Doing so will brake your port forwarding because you are confusing the computer.

Fix that and then try it. If you still have problems, post another screen shot of your port forwarding.

ok i tried removing my main system from the port farwards and still nothing....do i need to power cycle the router or reboot the system with the server on it?

[Mooga]

You still have port 27015 and 27011 forwarded twice.

ok i think thats what you needed me to do but it still doesnt work are there other setting in the router that may stop things from working IE ipsec pass or something in those settings??

[biohazard0669]

here are some of the other settings on my router maybe something is wrong with these??

[HBS|Ryan]

try this

remove all your port forwarding, cycle the router

then forward both tcp and udp for 1200 and another rule for tcp and udp for 27000 - 27040

[biohazard0669]

ok gimme a few and ill be back and let you know if it works

[biohazard0669]

ok did that still nothing
are the other router settings ok also??

i wonder if this is a router firmware issue....i tried going to some sites to see if my ports are forwarded and it says everything is closed.
