I recently relocated and switched to a new internet service provider. Back then, I handled port forwarding effortlessly, but now my public IP looks something like 2251:a000:1a04:9125:b725:8125:e892:8be5 (this isn’t real, just a made-up example). After setting up the port forward, I’m unsure what to share with anyone to access my Minecraft server.
I've shared my IPV4 address with others to access the server, but it's not functioning.
I haven't received either address yet. Could you provide the public IPv4 or LAN details?
My internet connection comes from the equipment your service provider gave me.
This would likely need to be sent to your device. If Minecraft doesn't support IPv6, you could use it, though I'm skeptical. Even if it did, the changes would probably be frequent compared to an IPv4 address—most of the length is set aside for random local adjustments, making it hard to pinpoint a stable equivalent.
Confirming, typical local IPv4 addresses start with "192.", such as "192.168.x.x", while public addresses never begin with "192."
