How to Join DonutSMP (FAQ)

How to join DonutSMP on Java, Bedrock and consoles: IP, port, versions, cross-play and connection problems.

What is the DonutSMP IP?

The server address is donutsmp.net, for both Java and Bedrock [1][2]. A Java status check shows that the address points to java.donutsmp.net through a DNS SRV record [3]. Some listing sites give play.donutsmp.net instead [4]. Full details are on Server Info.

What port does DonutSMP use?

Java uses the default port 25565, so you don't need to type a port [3][2]. Bedrock uses port 19132 [5][2].

What is the DonutSMP Bedrock IP?

On Bedrock, enter donutsmp.net as the server address and 19132 as the port [2][5]. In November 2026, a Bedrock status check on that address and port showed the server online, in Survival mode [5].

How do I join DonutSMP on Java Edition?

Open Multiplayer and choose Add Server or Direct Connect. Enter donutsmp.net, then save and join [2]. In the server list, the message of the day reads "DonutSMP.net" [3].

How do I join DonutSMP on Bedrock (Windows, mobile)?

Go to Play, then Servers, then Add Server. Enter donutsmp.net with port 19132, save and join [2]. Minelist gives these steps for phones, tablets, consoles and Windows Bedrock [2].

How do I join DonutSMP on Xbox, PS5 or Switch?

Minelist says that on consoles you add the server yourself under Servers, because friends lists alone won't show custom third-party servers [2]. BedrockConnect is a free, open-source workaround that supports Xbox One, Nintendo Switch and PS4/PS5 [6]. With its DNS method, you set a custom DNS on the console so that the Featured Servers entries lead to BedrockConnect. BedrockConnect then shows a server list, and when you enter a server's details it sends you to that server [6]. Enter donutsmp.net with port 19132 [2]. BedrockConnect is a third-party project, not part of DonutSMP, and it says it has no official mobile app [6].

Is DonutSMP Java or Bedrock?

Both. Java and Bedrock players use the same address [1], and server lists tag DonutSMP as crossplay [2][4].

Is DonutSMP cross-platform?

Yes. Minelist marks the listing as crossplay, so Java and Bedrock players can play on the same server [2]. CraftMC also lists it as "Crossplay" [4].

What version is DonutSMP?

Modrinth lists 1.21.11 as the recommended version and 1.21.x as supported [1]. Minelist says the owner lists 1.21 as the supported client version [2]. In November 2026, the Java status check showed Velocity with the version range "1.7.2-26.3" [3].

Is DonutSMP online right now?

In a November 2026 check, both the Java and Bedrock endpoints were online, with about 22,500 players and 50,000 slots [3][5]. Live player counts change constantly.

Can I join DonutSMP with mods or a modified client?

The official rules ban "hacked clients, modified Minecraft clients, or mods that give unfair advantages" [7]. The rules also ban ESP and X-ray features, freecam, movement mods, auto-clickers, macros that automate economy, farming or PvP, and Baritone-style automation [7]. A regular minimap is allowed as long as it doesn't show entities, players or cave layers [7]. See Rules.

How many accounts can I join with?

The rules allow a maximum of 5 accounts per person [7]. Using alts to get around a mute or ban counts as punishment evasion, which is not allowed [7].

I got "connection lost" or can't join DonutSMP. What do I do?

The official support site has a Technical support ticket category for "Can't join, crashes, lag, connection issues and bugs" [8]. The ticket asks what happened, when, your version and platform, and your /whereami output [8]. The support FAQ says /whereami "prints which node and shard you are on", and that staff use the full output to find your session [8]. To open a ticket, sign in with Discord or Google, then link your Minecraft account by running /link <code> in-game [8].

Why can't I join? Am I banned?

If you are banned, the support site says your ban ID "is shown on the disconnect screen when you try to join the server" [8]. Include the ID exactly as shown in a Punishment appeal ticket at support.donutsmp.net [8]. Most tickets are reviewed within 24 to 48 hours, and appeals can take a little longer on weekends [8].

How do I play DonutSMP once I join?

Modrinth describes DonutSMP as a server "where you try to become the best player by grinding to get loot and by fighting others" [1]. The fan-run Donutpedia wiki says /rtp teleports you to a random spot on the map, and running it without a region opens a selection menu [9]. Ways to earn money include /sell, auction house sales and filling /orders buy orders [10]. For live buy-order prices, see DonutOrders. See also Gameplay Features, Economy and PvP, Bases and Raiding.

Where is the official DonutSMP Discord?

The official invite is discord.gg/donutsmp [1][11]. More links are on Community and FAQ.
