This has ticked me off for long enough, so any suggestions for a sensibly priced replacement for a belkin F5D5231-4?? TIA Stephen I'm using a Linksys WRT54G. I'm using firmware from sveasoft, but it has some serious DHCP issues, so I'm still looking for a reliable firmware. The one supplied from Linksys is pretty lame. Netgear is good feature wise, but they have a limited nat table, which can cause problems on high traffic/volume servers. Netgears latest firmware causes regular reboots and is not very reliable (unless they fixed it - again). Cisco is the only way to go - I *never* had any problems with my Cisco. heh heh Cisco I wish. Any thoughts on the Linksys *BEFSR41? It seems to have got a lot of good reviews, I only need to connect two PCs and a wireless hub to it and the traffic is only high when I push large or lots of work related files around.

OoksServer wrote: 5) Don't go opening a whole bunch of ports. The only incoming port you need is 27015 (or the port you specified for your server). All other ports are outgoing ports and are psuedo-random by hlds and will be assigned by your router. I would like to add to this. I use an OpenBSD box for my home firewall/gateway. In my case the server was using port 27015 on the internal IP. I had a NAT rule to forward that port on the external IP to the internal IP. Now, that would seem to be all I needed to do, but it wasn't showing up on the list. However the server could be joined by manually connecting to my ext_IP:27015. The problem was OpenBSD was seeing my server send out the info on port 27015 to the master servers but it was randomizing the port. So the master list got some wacked out port number not 27015 and thus ignored it (my guess). Thanks to a couple people on the linux list I only had to add an extra NAT rule to force the port to remain static. Problem solved. But I have no idea how you would check to see if a little SOHO NAT box like one from Linksys or Netgear is also doing that. With a shell I have commands I can run to see what's going on. -- - m0gely http://quake2.telestream.com/ Q2 | Q3A | Counter-strike ___ To unsubscribe, edit your list preferences, or view the list archives, please visit: http://list.valvesoftware.com/mailman/listinfo/hlds

I don't see anything wrong with this, the "Adding master server" is a very good sign because it means your server is reaching out to the real world.
