Turn off DMZ host to the server, Forward UDP ports 27000 - 27020 and host on 27015 or some address between those. It doesn't seem logical to work but It fixed my problem. At least for linux. This is for linksys router.

Well, I have no idea what ind of connection you have, however I assume it's like ours, it was said to me that the easy way to do that would be to ..... Type your GATEWAY .. into the address bar of IE explorer ... (the part where you put in URLs) .. this is usually 192.168.0.1 or 192.168.0.0 , after that it may ask you for a user name and password, if you haven't changed any thing then admin admin might work It should be in your BOOK .. you want to look for an option called PORT FORWARDING ..


Oh and P.S. If you want an intelligent answer next time, please pose an intelligent question, U, UR,PPL, 4,2 and the such Are NOT words ... after all if I'm going to take time to help you .. for free, then at-least you should take the time to make it easy for my to understand your question .. unless every one Else BUT me was sent a magic secret decoder-ring in the mail and or cereal box .. And No, I'm not yelling at you, I'm simply using caps to get your attention
