How can I connect to my server with Aternos?
To make it easy for you to connect to your server without entering a different server IP every time, we automatically create and manage a domain name for your server (e.g. example.aternos.me). With every start, this domain name gets updated and points to a different IP address and a different port.
Can you create a custom domain on Aternos?
Additional to your aternos.me server address, you can connect your own custom domain to your Aternos server. This requires you to already own the domain you want to use. It is not possible to buy/register new domains via Aternos. There are also sites that allow you to register a domain name for free.

Why does Aternos save IP addresses behind domain names?
Every DNS server and even your computer save the IP addresses behind domain names for a short time to avoid unnecessary requests to other DNS servers. This is called “caching”. Some servers have a caching time that is too long. Aternos has a highly dynamic system to ensure the best possible use of our limited resources.
