### Common issues

#### Timeout / unable to connect

* Check that the server is **started** on the dashboard.
* Double-check that you are using **IP:port**.
* If you are using a subdomain, add `:PORT`. Example: `myserver.oxygenserv.com:PORT`.
* Restart Palworld. Try again after 2–3 minutes.

#### The server does not appear in the list

* Use the **IP**. This is the most stable method.

#### Password rejected

* Check the case (uppercase / lowercase).
* Re-enter the password. Avoid copy-paste.

### FAQ

#### Can I connect with a domain name?

Yes. Create an Oxygenserv subdomain, then use it instead of the IP: [Put a domain name on your server](/en/dashboard/mettre-un-nom-de-domaine-sur-son-serveur.md).

#### Where can I find my Palworld server's port?

On the dashboard, next to the IP address. The display looks like `IP:PORT`.
