When your IP Address changes, your friends will no longer be able to access your Minecraft Server. No-IP helps solve this problem by always keeping your hostname updated with the correct IP address. This means that your gaming server will always be accessible to those who want to join your server.

No-IP assigns you an easy to remember name like yourname.ddns.net
We monitor your IP address for changes and update the name when it changes.
Simply Download our Dynamic Update Client or enable DDNS in your router.

Hosting a Minecraft Server with No-IP is easy and requires the following items:

Computer

You will need a robust computer with at least 3 GB of physical RAM. That way, plenty of RAM is left over for the operating system, and you have the possibility of allocating more to the Minecraft server as needed.

Minecraft Server

In order to run your own Minecraft server, follow these directions. You can also view our Knowledge Base Guide on How to Host and Configure a Minecraft Server. How to Host and Configure a Minecraft Server with No-IP.

You’ll need to download the Minecraft Java Edition Server. We recommend the experience with Linux command line.

No-IP Account

Dynamic IP addresses can make it hard for your friends to join your Minecraft Server. No-IP makes it easy by pointing an easy-to-remember hostname (yourname.serveminecraft.net) to your IP address. Create a Free Dynamic DNS account above.

Minecraft Account

Visit www.minecraft.net to create a Minecraft account. If you already have a Microsoft account, you can use that to log in, or simply create a new account.
