Set up networking

DeployCat finds your network address and opens the Bedrock port for you automatically using UPnP — the part that usually trips people up is handled in one toggle.

  • Opens UDP port 19132 automatically
  • Picks the right network adapter for you
  • No router login or manual port forwarding
