| 22 | +## Obtain server details |
| 23 | + |
| 24 | +You will require all the relevant information necessary to connect to your server. The information about your server can be found on the dashboard of your game server's web interface panel. Important information includes the following: |
| 25 | + |
| 26 | +- IP address and port |
| 27 | +- Server name |
| 28 | +- Server password (Optional) |
| 29 | + |
| 30 | +Using the information mentioned above, you should be able to locate your server and ensure that you connect to the correct server. |
| 31 | + |
| 32 | + |
| 33 | + |
| 34 | +## Establish server connection |
| 35 | + |
| 36 | +The connection to a game server can often be established in one or more ways. Available methods are described and explained in detail below. |
| 37 | + |
| 38 | +<Tabs> |
| 39 | + |
| 40 | +<TabItem value="connect_solution_server_browser_ingame" label="Server Browser (In-game)" default> |
| 41 | + |
| 42 | +To connect to your server via the in-game server browser, open the game. Once in game, click on **Multiplayer** top open the server list. At the top right of the server list, you can now search for the name of your server in the search bar and then select your server and establish the connection. |
| 43 | + |
| 44 | + |
| 45 | + |
| 46 | +</TabItem> |
| 47 | + |
| 48 | +<TabItem value="connect_solution_direct_ingame" label="Direct connect (In-game)"> |
| 49 | + |
| 50 | +Instead of searching for the server by name, you can also use the direct connection via the `V` button. Open the direct connection and enter the IP address and port of your server. Confirm the input with the `Enter` button to establish a connection. |
