Compare a fresh status check with a connection attempt from your own device.
Follow these steps
Check the exact address
Copy the current connection details again. Remove webpage prefixes and accidental spaces. For Bedrock, verify the separate port field and the Bedrock endpoint.
Run a fresh MineRate status check
Select the correct edition in the status checker. A response shows that our monitoring host reached that endpoint; no response alone does not prove it is unavailable to every player.
Compare with another server
Try another public server for the same edition. If only one fails, check that project’s announcements. If several fail, restart the game and examine your device’s network access.
Check the connection from your device
If permitted, try another network to compare results. Check whether a school or workplace network blocks gaming, or a security rule blocks Minecraft. Ask the network administrator where needed.
Common questions
MineRate says online. Why can I still fail to join?
Our checker uses a different network route and only tests the public status response. Your route, login, version or access permissions can still fail.
What should I send to the owner?
Send the error text, edition, game version, address and port, plus the time you tried. Do not send passwords or account sign-in codes.
