# How do I connect to my TeamSpeak server?

https://www.seturack.com/en/knowledgebase/article/how-to-connect-to-teamspeak-server

1. In the panel, open **My servers** and click your server.
2. On the **Overview** tab, wait for the **App** row to say "TeamSpeak is ready". The page refreshes itself.
3. Copy the values from the **Connection address** and **Admin key** rows.
4. Open the TeamSpeak client on your computer and go to **Connections > Connect**.
5. Enter the **Connection address** value as the server address, pick a nickname and connect.
6. When the client asks for a privilege key, paste the **Admin key** value. If it doesn't ask, use **Permissions > Use Privilege Key**. You are now the server's administrator.

## The rows in your panel

| Row | What it is for |
| --- | --- |
| Connection address | Your server's IP address. Your friends connect with it too. |
| Admin key | The one-time administrator key created on first boot |

TeamSpeak has no web interface, so the panel shows no site address or app password. The **Username** and **Password** rows further down are for SSH.

## Good to know

- The key works once. After you use it, it stays visible in the panel but no longer does anything. To add more administrators, create new keys in the client under **Permissions > Privilege Keys**.
- The server has no password, so anyone with the address can connect. To set one, right-click the server name and open **Edit Virtual Server**.
- Port **9987/UDP** is open for voice and **30033/TCP** for file transfers. Port 22 is also open for SSH. The ServerQuery port (10011) is closed to the outside.
- You accept the TeamSpeak licence agreement when you order. The free licence is limited to 32 people.

If you want your friends to type a domain instead of an IP, see [this article](https://www.seturack.com/en/knowledgebase/article/how-to-connect-your-own-domain).

**No server yet?** [Order a server with TeamSpeak installed](https://www.seturack.com/en/teamspeak-vps): you choose the size and pay for what you choose.
