Thread: counter strike- not running online

Please help.
I used to play conter strike on non steam servers. But my exam came and i have to stop. In between there was a format of my computer. So after xams i installed CS 1.6 and also patch v23(same that i had done before) . But now it is saying could not connect to master game server.
Help please

Make sure its not because of Windows Firewall or any other Firewall blocking the application. If so then add it to firewall exception list from Control Panel-> Windows Firewall -> Exeptions -> Add Program and specify the path to cstrike.exe.
If you use any internet security software or other third party firewall add it to that software's exception list also.

its all ready set in exception then also not running????
i even tried to uninstlall my interntet secutity then also

What do u mean by non steam servers ??

Private servers ?
Garena?
some other?

Nonsteam Servers means the game is that are hosted through Half-Life Dedicated Server. Theres an exe file in the HL folder to create that.

I've never experienced such problem with any game. But I think you better install the latest patch for the game. Or even uninstall and do a clean re-install of the game.

Please note:-
If you have PPPoe mode (always on) then must do the following:-

Port forward the following ports.

TCP Ports
27030,27031,27032.....till 27039

UDP Ports
1200 and 27000,27001,27002... till 27015

Refer the following on how to do it :-

Download the attachment (zip file in the first post of the given thread link).
Unzip the file to a folder and read through the instructions properly. You need to add the ports (those numbers I gave in bold letters) to forwarded them through modem configuration(192.168.1.1).

see this is the screen i am getting ..but i am not able to choose the options

mine is a bridge connectionn

my connection is a bridge connection. So port forwarding is still the problem for me.

This is possible not the problem but still :-
Go to control panel-> Network Connection
In menu bar Click Advanced->Advanced settings.
Make sure Local Area Network (representing your Lan Card) is on top of the list.


In a counter strike forum I saw that some people simply did a clean install of CounterStrike to solve the problem.

well if your in bridged mode, then port forwarding not required.. do one thing.. this is just to test.. switch of windows firewall temporarily and then try connecting!!does it work?

its running so relieved .....just it was installation problem...thanks.
By the way i tried garena. With most of indian server when i try to connect ...it says something about protocol 47, 48 and update.something related to this. I dont know could you tell me how to update.

its running so relieved .....i install along with install bitdefender with firewall. SO when i started bit defender asked to allow or not . THen it runs....thanks.
