server help needed

[nirvanadude240]

hi all,
i want to start a karkland only server and i have set it up correctly but when serching for my server i cant find it on internet games only local games. i think it might be my ip address since im on a network so it's 192.168.0.1. i have tryed my other ip address 172.201.***.** and the server doesnt start up on that one. i have clicked the button that allows it to be shown in the internet game browsers, can any one help or send me a link to a website with a tutorial on making a stand alone server?
cheers

What does that give you?
One of the 2 above addresses or something different?
