  1. I am trying to start a server and I want to have a public ip address and I am a windows computer user. I opened cmd and did ipconfig all and just ipconfig but I don't know which one other people can connect with and me not on my wifi. There are plenty of IP's I can connect to but everyone else cant please help!


    I also have another problem, what ever ip I use it says this in the console

    [13:21:26 INFO]: Starting minecraft server version 1.12.2
    [13:21:26 WARN]: To start the server with more ram, launch it as "java -Xmx1024M -Xms1024M -jar minecraft_server.jar"

    Depends on your router, best to google it yourself.

    @AniimalSquadMember Open a port in the firewall.
    Redirect a port from the router to the open port in the firewall.

    Generally, you have to access the router controls using the address that's on the router. Google port forwarding and your router model number.
     
  10. ok but do you know if bukkit is a TPC or UDC thing

    Make sure you forward the default port, or whatever port you have your server set to. Default is 25565. Next you should be able to access the server from any connection.

    in the server.properties, leave the server-ip= blank.

    In minecraft for the server address use the IPv4 Address you find when you type ipconfig in your terminal/cmd prompt

    go to canyouseeme.org and type in the port you forwarded. if the website cannot see you on the port, you did not forward the port correctly.

    Don't put it into the server-ip field

    You don't put it anywhere. The server knows what your computer IP is, you don't need to specify it anywhere.
     
  22. I did that it worked I can connect using my personal ip but others can’t connect to the server because they can’t use my ip so how do others connect?

    1. Which IP are you connecting to then?
    2. Did you port forward the router?
    3. Did you open a port in the firewall?
    4. What message do you get when you try to connect to it?
