lol anybody?
You need open ports, and SRCDS. Download Srcds and make the server, c if a friend can join. Some routers dont need forwared ports…my old one didn’t…If noone can join. Google your model…
like how do i open ports? thats the thing,i was going to but then i couldnt find my router on the list… when i host its lan though…
It will show up on the lan list because your hosting it, and its going into your router. goto www.ipchicken.com get that IP give it to a friend. If he joins no need for it. If not, post a thread on yahoo answers or somthing. And mabye they will tell you how.
Or go to http://www.PortForward.com and look for one closest to yours. if u cant find it. Then post a thread on yahoo, or google it.
The ports u need open are:
srcds
27015 - 27020 UDP, TCP
27005 UDP, TCP
InGame(Listen)
27015 - 27020
27005 - 27005
27039 - 27039
ALL UDP and TCP

i can tell you how to get intop your router tho. go to start\run and type CMD press enter, when CMD comes up. Type in IP config. Now Your Default gateway is the IP to your router. Put that into your internet browser. And u should be on your router page.
IP cake is great and all but come on man, stop pushing your site around everywhere.
w8 its a modem,do i still have to forward ports with a modem? if so what do i do to get to the port forward place? sorry if i sound like a noob,ive just never hosted a game that much in my year of gmod 
i got it to work,and am hosting,but what about dedicated servers? like are they free or do you always pay?
