TeamSpeak: Connection to server failed - This helps

In order to use the TeamSpeak voice chat with friends, you need to connect to a server. If you get the error message "Connection to server failed" when you try, this may be due to various problems that are often easy to fix.

What to do if the connection to the Teamspeak 3 server fails?

If you want to connect to a TS3 server but it doesn't work, there are some common issues that can cause the problem.

1. First of all, check if you have an internet connection. For example, call any page on the Internet for this.
2. If you do not reach any Internet page, something is wrong with the connection. Mostly you can already fix the problem by restarting your router.
3. If the Internet problems persist, contact your provider to solve the problem.
4. Check the entered IP address for the TS3 server for typos. If you have made a mistake, you will also receive an error message that the connection has failed.
5. Possibly TS3 is blocked by your firewall. Set it correctly and allow Teamspeak in the firewall.
6. Most of the time Teamspeak will offer you updates automatically, if they are available. If you have connection problems, check manually if an update is available and install it. Call for this in Teamspeak 3 "Help > Check for update".
7. Eventually, the server is down or not set correctly. Contact the admin if the problem persists so they can check the settings.
