something to try. change 27016 to open both UDP and TCP in your router. And as Lane said the 192.x.x.x is an internal IP, but once you can see your server in the master server list. You can connect with the console command as you shown above. connect <outside IP>:<port> One way to get your outside IP is to go to www.canyouseeme.org , you can also check as see if the port is open from there.
