How to connect your own domain to a Teamspeak 3 (TS3) server

If you don't know how to get your own domain, check our article on this topic.

Teamspeak 3 offers DNS support allowing connection using only the domain, without the need to enter ports.

For demonstration purposes, let's assume your server address is 1.2.3.4:9987. The domain address you have is example.com.

The address consists of two parts separated by the : character:

  • IP address: 1.2.3.4
  • server port: 9987

Screenshots come from the DNS entry management system at the company we recommend.

Creating an A record

Add an A record pointing the voice subdomain to the server IP address 1.2.3.4.

Creating an SRV record

Add an SRV record named _ts3._udp with the value: 0 9987 voice.example.com.

Note, don't forget to change 9987 to your server port and example.com to your domain!

Summary

Done, now you can connect to your TS3 using the domain example.com.

Note, the propagation (activation) time for new DNS entries is up to 24 hours.
