Thanks PIX, i checked the forums and i got an idea after reading all the posts, im surprised that PlanetHalflife forums didnt show up in goodle when i searched it.
I think ive found the solution to my problem. Ok heres what was happeneing. When i connected to the server through internet games, the server ip address that i was being connected to was 24.156.172.79:27016 which is my WAN ip address. Somehow this confused the server, i dont know how im just presuming that it did. So i decided to connect to the server manually through the console using its LAN ip address (connect 192.168.1.101:27016) instead of its WAN ip address (24.156.172.79:27016). So far i havnt got booted off the server and no error msgs received so it looks promising.
