Hi, Does anyone have a Source Dedicated server?

Question

Hi, I'm having a lot of trouble with my Source dedicated server. i start the server. it says the ip is 192.168.2.2:27015 but it isn't, no one can connect to it. so i find out that they need my external ip which is 86.133.4.225(:27015) and then they still cant connect to it. i have allowed it through my firewall but i still don't know whats up. please does anyone know? if they do are they able to do remote assistance to help me complete it? my MSN is [e-mail].

thanks!

Hi there,

you need to make sure the server and your internal PC are on the same IP and subnet range. even if it means disconnecting from the internet, manually changing the IP address to one which is in its range... you need to be on the same range to configure the server.

Also where is your NAT enabled? you need to make sure that is correctly configured so that external pc's can connect.

Is your server set up to be a domain controller or a terminal server? either way... make sure you have remote access enabled.

to me it sounds like a simple IP config problem. tell me your IP address, default gateway, and subnet. and also the servers.
