Learn about Quake TCP/IP settings like Address and Port, and how to search for or join games.

Address - This is your network address within Quake. You cannot manually change this option; Quake sets it for you.

Port - The port at which you will connect to the server. This is fine as it is, so just leave it as the default unless you know what you are doing.

Search for local games... - Causes Quake to search the internet for multiplayer games. It will return a list of the games of Quake running on a server. Select the game you want to join and press enter. If no games can be found, Quake will give the message 'No Quake servers found'.

Join a game at... - Type in the IP address of the Quake server you want to connect to.

Tips
  • Leave the Port setting at its default unless you have a specific reason to change it.
  • If 'No Quake servers found' appears, double-check the server address or try searching again later.
