RESOLVED - Having an issue starting a server

So I followed oldassgamer's video and obviously adjusted for my settings. I've gotten up to the launching of the actual server and seem to connect, but not correctly. I connect but only seemingly because it's on my LAN.

My shortcut reads: C:\Ingurgites_Private\SERVER\Server.exe -name "Ingurgites" -port 26997 -password "test" -map "ns2_tram" -limit 14


I can connect to it but it seems to be using my LAN connection only (10.0.0.x:27015) instead of connecting to a server. In another thread ScardyBob said I should see it twice, and I don't. I'm wondering if it's related to below:

I've got an odd setup in my house. The way my house was wired (before we moved in), there's a ton of interference (cell phones don't work, wireless signals get dropped 95% of the time) on the middle level of my house. So we have two wireless routers, the one that comes in from outside (Verizon has a single unit modem/router) and we have a hardwire running up to my top floor with another router, to which I'm hardwired. I've got the upstairs router in a DMZ on the Verizon router, and forwarded the ports on my upstairs router. I'm not a networking pro, but this should work, right? If not, let me know what I've got to do.

    Make sure you open the two ports, one for the server game connection, and one for the connection to Steam's server list.

    Forward
    GAME PORT(def. 27015) - UDP
    STEAM PORT(def. 27016) - TCP (GAME PORT + 1)

    Then your server should register twice in the server browser, one LAN entry, and one from the Steam servers.

    I found out what I was doing wrong. It wasn't configured properly lol. I had misspelled the path to the config_path, so it was creating a whole new folder. I fixed it and everything works now :)

    Thanks for the help though
