Can not connect to Minecraft server with Kindle

Hi there Romano welcome to the community forum! Christopher here, an Xbox fan just like you and has been on Xbox for years already. I would really love to make your day by helping you out. Have you tried uninstalling and installing the game?

Hello ERROR 008,



Welcome to the Microsoft Community.

There are many reasons for not being able to connect to any server in Minecraft. Here are some of the common reasons and their solutions so that you can troubleshoot and solve the problem step by step:



1. Check if the Minecraft version and the server version match

Make sure that the server you are trying to connect to is compatible with your version of Minecraft. If you are playing Minecraft Java Edition and the server you are trying to connect to is Bedrock Edition (or vice versa), you will not be able to connect.

Solution:

Make sure you are using the correct version of Minecraft (Java or Bedrock) to connect to the appropriate type of server.

You can check the server's official website or introduction page for information on the versions supported by the server.



2. Make sure your internet connection is working

Minecraft may not be able to connect to the server due to network problems. When the network is unstable, too slow, or malfunctioning, it may prevent you from connecting to the server.

Solution:

Make sure your device is connected to a stable network (use a wired connection or make sure the Wi-Fi signal is good).

You can try opening other apps or websites to test the network connection and make sure there are no network interruptions or delays.



3. Check Minecraft's Firewall or Network Settings

If you are using a firewall or certain network security software, it may be preventing Minecraft from establishing a connection with the server. You can check your firewall settings to see if there are rules that prevent Minecraft from connecting.

Solution:

Open your firewall settings and make sure that Minecraft or Minecraft Launcher is allowed to connect to the Internet through the firewall.

Make sure that no other internet security software is blocking Minecraft connections.

You can also contact the support staff of the corresponding game to find out why.

When in human form, you can Kindle bonfires by sacrificing humanity. You probably rested at a bonfire you haven't started to kindle yet.

No Kindle = 5 flasks

One Kindle = 10 flasks

Two Kindles = 15 flasks

Three Kindles = 20 flasks

I see, in this case Check your internet connection, ensure that your internet connection is stable and functioning properly. If your connection is weak or intermittent, it may affect your ability to connect to Minecraft servers.

Verify server addresses: Double-check the server addresses you're trying to connect to. Make sure you have entered the correct server address, including the IP address or domain name, and the port number if necessary. Types or incorrect information can prevent you from connecting to the servers.

Check firewall and antivirus settings: Firewalls and antivirus software on your computer may be blocking your connection to Minecraft servers. Temporarily disable any firewall or antivirus software and try connecting again.

Test with different servers: Try connecting to different Minecraft servers to see if the issue persists. This can help determine if the problem is specific to certain servers or if it's a general connectivity issue. You can find a list of popular Minecraft server listings online and try connecting to different ones.

Restart your router/modem: Power off your router and modem, then unplug them from the power source. Wait for about 30 seconds, then plug them back in and power them on. This process helps refresh your network connection and may resolve any temporary issues.

Update Minecraft: Make sure you have the latest version of Minecraft installed. Updates often include bug fixes and improvements that can address connectivity issues. Check for any available updates in the Minecraft launcher and install them if necessary.

No, nothing like that was ever set up. We only used to to log into minecraft on the kindle fire.
