How to Find the IP Address for Your Minecraft Server

Last updated
Ever wondered how to connect to your friend’s Minecraft world or join a new adventure on a public server? You’ll need the server’s IP address, and here’s how you can find it!
Let’s dig into the details of discovering the IP address for a Minecraft server, ensuring you can jump into your next blocky adventure without a hitch.
Short and Sweet: Finding Your Server IP
Finding the IP address of a Minecraft server depends on whether it’s a public server or a private one you or your friend set up. For public servers, the IP is often listed on their website or a server list online. For a private server, the person who set up the server can find the IP address in their server settings or by checking their computer’s network settings.
If you’re playing on a server you set up, you can usually find the IP address by looking at your computer’s network settings. If you’re on Windows, open the Command Prompt and type ipconfig
. Look for the “IPv4 Address.” That’s your server’s IP. On a Mac, go to System Preferences > Network, and you’ll see your IP address listed.
