Hosting CS server with Netgear RP114

[Blisster]

So I'm trying to run a dedicated server through my RP114. When im on my other machibne at home, i can connect via LAN, but am having a hard time figuring out how to give out the IP to my friends so we can all pay on my server. When I join on LAN, the IP is the local 192.168.0.3 IP, but what IP do i need to give to my friends, and where can i find it? In the router set-up utility, i get a WAN IP adress, but if i search for a game server there, i don't find anything.

Help anyone?

Thanks

right now the IP is 64.170.194.5 but i have Dynamic IP so it may change.

I'll be home late tonight, like 1130 west coast time, so if your up that late, stop on by.

hey i had the same problem and same router am i am not too swift with computers so could you tell me the step by step to get the server running and how did you find out your wan ip? i can only get the network ip? be really specific cause i always screw things up. thanks in advance . maybe we can play some time.

you need to go into the settings of your router, go to advanced, go to ports and then enter port 27015(thats the default CS server port) then put the IP (local) of the machine thats running the server, i.e 192.168.0.3.

to obtain your WAN IP goto the 'maintenence' section of your routers comfig, the first screen that comes up should have your WAN ip listed.

PM me ir look me up on AIM: WCE Blisster if u got any other ???
