Your server can't use that ip addy, your router is already using it. Just let NAT pass the traffic thru the port you have forwarded to the internal ip address of the server. This is an issue with a similar cvar in Source games like HL2. That cvar would work if you had a "real" external ip address for your server, but you only have one ip address and it's being used by the router........
