Well, first off type 192.168.0.1 in your address bar (or whatever joor router IP is) and log in.

Then if it asks you to log in, the default username/pass is:

Username: admin
pass: password

Once your in goto port forwarding, create a new port and make the ports the following: 27014 to 27016

Make sure you turn off any firewall, and your good to go :)

Goto start-->run and type 'cmd ipconfig' then when DOS opens up (the black screen) type 'ipconfig' and a listing should show up.



Look at that (i blocked my ip address so no one can hack meh)

Anyways, type that into the address bar, then continue my instructions above :)

Or try to go here: http://192.168.0.1/start.htm

It'd under Advances

I see you found it out. Anyways, goto new one. Lemme log in for exact name. Uno Momento.

Edit: Goto Add custom service, make the service name whatever you want. Starting port: 27014
Ending Port: 27016

And add YOUR Ip address, not the routers.

It's 27014 - 27016

Actually the ports are 27014 to 27016 As Kaination said earlier.

Dont pick any, Create a custom one. That might help you there.

I don't know which ones you should pick... if it makes you pick one. I guess google it and read up on it or just go by trial and error and see which ones work. Unless that could cause problems in your PC...

BAM! Problem solved!
there's a command to make it show up right away, but it will take about 10 mins for it to show up in the server list.

Also make sure in your server.cfg you have sv_lan set to 0.
