old server hosting

Hey guys!
So i have server hosting problem, it seems that no matter what i do my servers are not visible in server list ingame, what have i done: port forwarding (never was a problem), server isnt "hidden" or lan/offline, firewall isnt blocking it, antivirus isnt blocking it and everything was fine couple of days ago.

So it worked perfectly couple of days ago and now it doesnt and its same for listen and dedicated server hosting on my laptop.

One strange thing i noticed are my port number, i write 36963 like it is supose to be: https://ibb.co/cPbVJ6
but on http://www.cs2d.com/servers.php page my server shows up with this port: https://ibb.co/fFJud6 ...

So whats the deal with that?

You can try starting the server with the command line parameter 
-realport
. Or try to manually connect to the server using the port you specified.

Sometimes the server appears to have another port than you assigned. I have no explanation for this behavior. Maybe it's an OS thing or it's caused by the UDP library I'm using. -realport forces the serverlist to use the port you actually specified in the settings.

i tried with that realport cmd, and my port is now correct at least, but still no one cannot connect to my server, it doesnt exist in server list ingame

this happened before thogh, the longest i was not able to host was for 1-2 month or so, usally 1-2 days (did not change a thing in that periods)

A litle update on this for anyone that might experience same problem like me: I didnt do anything, problem solved by itself after some 2 weeks (or so) of waiting. Did not change any settings, did not instal anything new, literaly nothing did i change, yet i can host back normaly, and port is back to normal 36963 without forcing it.

If you have dedicated IP / router then you can freely host servers. Needs right firewall settings.

@user apex2d: If firewall was blocking game then I would not be able to join other server, right...? And if this was true, I dont think so that firewall will block game in one moment, and then decide to unblock it after some weeks . Theese are some weird bugs with either game itself or my wifi, router or something like that.

That depends on whether you are running the dedicated server application or starting as new game.

Double check to make sure.
