I've used Netgear and Linksys routers to run a server from home for years. Although this offends some of the purists with datacenter connections or rented servers, it meets my needs and I have a small loyal following of happy players. Point is, I and many others have ran servers from home with LInksys or Netgear routers for years. It works fine if you set it up correctly.
Having said that - what ports are you forwarding to your server from the router? And are you sure your server is not staying on the list? What is your server name and ip? What mod are you running? Start the server, let it run until it drops off of the list, and then keep it running and let some of us probe for it. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Dave" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Friday, January 05, 2007 3:16 PM Subject: [hlds] port value changes
This is a multi-part message in MIME format. -- [ Picked text/plain from multipart/alternative ] The problem im having is my server runs with "my ip:60006" and changes.I have tried everything I can find on the subject with mixed results, all bad. Router is a d-link di624. I bought two others, A Linksys, and a Netgear. These both ran with "my ip:27015", but stayed on list less than twenty minutes. Im running this server from my home, steam test says udp ports passed udp port: 27000-27040/ tcp ports passed tcp port:27020-27040. Any addtnl. info needed will be posted. Help will be appreciated. -- _______________________________________________ To unsubscribe, edit your list preferences, or view the list archives, please visit: http://list.valvesoftware.com/mailman/listinfo/hlds
