I'm trying to start up a server using srcds.
Everything loads up fine, however it says my internal ip is 10.10.10.11, even though it's 10.10.10.12.
That IP isn't even leasable my DHCP, so I don't know what's going on.
Because of this, nobody is able to connect.
10.10.10.* ip's are private and non-routable. Other players will not be able to use those ip's to connect yo your server. You will first have to port forward the server and use your public ip to connect to it instead.

He's talking about (as he said) the internal IP shown on start-up before a connection to Steam is made.

Do you have any other network adapters? My experiences are, that GMod not always select the correct one and sometimes a VMWare adapter or similar.
Set a fixed IP using the -ip commandline parameter.
So:
[code]srcds.exe -ip 10.10.10.11[/code]
Don't forget your other parameters.

You have to forward your ports, so incoming requests to your WAN IP (Assigned by your ISP) will be forwarded to your internal IP. [url=http://portforward.com]This site[/url] might be useful to show you how to do it on your Router.

Thanks for clearing it up though.

This solved it for me, not sure why it'll chose the wrong one though. I guess I'll look more into that one later.
