Connect to your Rust server

There are two easy ways to join your Qubesquad Rust server: the in-game console (fastest) or the server browser.

Find your address and port

1. Open your server at panel.qubesquad.com.
2. Click the address at the top to open Connection details.
3. Copy the full address and port — for example your-server.qubesquad.net:28015.

Option A — the F1 console (fastest)

1. Launch Rust and load into the main menu.
2. Press F1 to open the console.
3. Type the following, using your own address and port:

   client.connect your-server.qubesquad.net:28015

4. Press Enter. Rust will connect.

Option B — the server browser

1. On the Rust main menu, click Play Game.
2. Choose the Community tab (or Modded if you run Oxide/Carbon plugins).
3. Type your server’s name into the search box and double-click it.

Add it to favourites

Once you’ve joined once, right-click the server in the browser and add it to Favourites so it’s one click next time.

It won’t connect?

• Server not running — check the status pill in the dashboard and press Start if it’s offline.
• Can’t find it in the browser — the browser can take a few minutes to list a freshly started server. Use the F1 console method instead.
• “Disconnected: Wrong version” — a Rust update went out. Restart your server from the dashboard so it updates to the latest build, then reconnect.
• Want to admin your server? — Rust servers include RCON. Find the host, port and password under Settings → RCON (WebRCON).
• Time for a fresh map? — see Wipe a Rust server.
