The reason your port shows up as a random port is because your router does
not have port 27015 forwarded. HLDS will make an outgoing connection on
local port 27015. If the router does not have that forwarded to the outside
world, it opens up a pseudo-random port instead, and that is what people see
from the inside.

The IP address that hlds shows is the local network ip address of the
machine it is running on. The ip address people see from the outside is the
ip address your ISP assigns to you.

What type of internet connection do you have? What type of modem? router?
firewall?
