If someone out there knows how i could get a server going that people could join i would appreciate it. I know i have to type sv_lan 0 but i can't seem to get people to join does anyone know what i have to do? I am behind a router, there has got to be a way to get this server going. Please help!

Without knowing that I cannot answer your question fully but....
Check here first Port forward - Slect your router - then select Half-life 2 and follow the insructions.
OR simply you need to forward / open the following ports in your router
27015 UDP
27015 TCP
27020 UDP
Make sure that if your router requires you to assign an LAN server address for the port/s that you use your current Lan IP address or its not gonna work
May be worth while actually looking at th elinks I posted for you ......
Anyway if you click here - this shows you how to forward ports on YOUR exact router to get HL2 working over the Internet to host servers.

LOL Genxer my search took me to another different page. It basically gives you the same information as the link that you posted but the page looks a bit different. BTW I did click on "his" router model incorrectly.
