# How to Connect to Your 7 Days to Die Server

Congratulations on setting up your own 7 Days to Die server with PingPlayers! Now that you’re ready to dive into the world of survival, crafting, and exploration, connecting to your server is the next step. Follow this guide to seamlessly connect to your server using your provided IP:Port and server name.

Step-by-Step Guide to Connect to Your 7 Days to Die Server



# Step 1: Launch 7 Days to Die



1. Start the Game: Open the 7 Days to Die application on your computer. Make sure that the game is fully updated to avoid connectivity issues.

# Step 2: Access the Server Menu



1. Navigate to the Multiplayer Menu: From the main menu, click on “Join a Game.” This will take you to the server browser where you can see a list of available servers.

3. Enter Server Details



In the “Server” window, you’ll need to enter the following information:

- Direct Connect (Recommended): You can click "Connect to IP..." button at the bottom of the menu to connect to the server IP directly. Type in the IP address that you received from PingPlayers. You can find it in the server dashboard. We recommend this method as it's much more straightforward.
- Port: Enter the port number associated with your server. By default, 7 Days To Die uses 26900, but it may be different if you specified a custom port.

Once you've filled in these fields, click the “OK” button.

Example format:
```
192.168.1.100
26900
```
- Using your Server Name: This is the name you specified when setting up your server. You can give it any name you like for your reference. Remember that the name you selected is inside the "Basic Settings". You can access it from your account->My Servers->Game->Basic Settings. After adding your server, it will now appear on the list of available servers. Look for the name you entered earlier.

2. Click ‘OK’ or ‘Add’: After entering the server information, confirm by clicking the acceptable button, which could be labeled “OK,” “Add,” or similar.

# Step 5: Enjoy Your Game!



1. Wait for Loading: After a few moments of loading, you should be connected to your game server. If everything is in order, you’ll find yourself in the world of 7 Days to Die, ready to start building, exploring, and surviving!

Troubleshooting Tips



- Connection Failed: If you are unable to connect, double-check the IP address and port number you entered for any typos. Ensure there are no extra spaces or characters or that the name is correct.
- Server Status: If you’re still having trouble, double-check with PingPlayers to ensure your server is up and running properly.
