I followed this post: [url]http://forums.srcds.com/viewpost/112192#pid112192[/url] This didn't fix the issue, but I thought it was worth mentioning it as the guy has the same issue as me.

Try also forwarding ports 27005 and 27016. If you pay someone to host you should ask them for support, they would know best.

Your ISP is probably blocking port 27015. Portforward 27215 ONLY TCP and set the [B]-port[/B] parameter to 27215. Do not open any other ports other than that 27215 because it's useless. You don't need to forward anything else. Also, make sure SRCDS is allowed in Windows Firewall. And one last thing, you might want to look into use Linux as that computer's specs isn't great and Windows is a heavy OS while Linux is more lightweight.

I'm not sure it's the ISP. I'm able to port forward Minecraft without a single issue. But gmod is a huge pain.

You said 27215 :P. I am having port forwarding problems at the moment too. AT+T uverse. Wish I had friends to help test out my server though :|

No; he means 27215 because some ISPs block port 27015. Also, if you play on the same computer you host on, you'll need to switch from 27015 since Steam also used that port.

Please remove that, or I'll get it removed. It's completely irrelevant. I'm still having issues with the port. 27215 isn't working. Any more suggestions. P.S In the future don't self-advertise posts that have no relevance to do with the post. It's not cool.

Who's your provider by the way? I just kept looking on youtube for videos until someone had my provider (AT+T) uverse and i saw what they did which was UDP from 27015 to 27016 only, try that.
