Why does Geyser need a dedicated IP?
Java connections include the server address the player typed, so thousands of servers can share one protected IP and we route by domain. Bedrock's UDP packets carry no server address, so there is nothing to route by: each Bedrock setup needs its own IP. That is what the dedicated IP is for.
What Geyser IP do I give my Bedrock players?
Your dedicated protected IP (or a domain pointing at it) with your Bedrock port, 19132 by default. The dashboard shows the exact address and port to share once your backend is configured.
Is this a reverse proxy for Geyser?
Yes, in practice. Searches for "reverse geyser" usually mean running Geyser behind a reverse proxy so the real server IP stays hidden and attacks land elsewhere. That is exactly this setup: our filter sits in front of your Geyser instance and forwards clean traffic to it.
Does Geyser work with Folia?
Yes. Geyser officially supports Folia, and from our side it makes no difference: we filter traffic before it reaches your server, whatever software runs there.
Can I use this with a Minecraft host like exaroton?
Yes. Hosts like exaroton install Geyser and Floodgate for you in one click; our filter just needs a reachable address for your server to forward clean traffic to. If your host gives you a stable address and port, it works.
Why is Geyser not in the Free plan?
Filtering UDP requires a dedicated IP per customer plus edge capacity we can't share the way we do for Java traffic, so it can't be free. It starts at about €7.98/month total: Starter at €2.99 plus the dedicated IP at €4.99.
