client bedrock connection problem | GeyserMC | Page 1

Hi,

I'm running a Paper 1.21.11 server with Geyser-Spigot 2.9.2 (build 1051) and Floodgate. Java players can connect without issues, but Bedrock players cannot.

What I've verified:

Server is reachable (mcsrvstat.us shows server as online)
UDP port 19132 is open and working
Geyser logs show incoming pings from Bedrock clients
tcpdump confirms UDP packets are being sent and received
Geyser is listening on IPv4 (added -Djava.net.preferIPv4Stack=true to startup)

The issue:
Bedrock client receives server info (can see MOTD, player count) but when trying to connect, it fails with "Multiplayer Connection Failed".

Server logs only show "has pinged you!" - no actual connection attempts.

Versions:

Geyser: 2.9.2-SNAPSHOT (git-master-5b19852)
Server protocol: 1.21.130 (protocol 898)
Bedrock client: 1.21.132

Question:
Is this a version mismatch issue? Bedrock 1.21.132 seems newer than what Geyser currently supports (1.21.130). Is there an ETA for 1.21.132 support?

Thanks!

Is this a server provider or locally hosted?

#

not too sure then

#

multiplayer connection failed usually means a port isnt properly port forwarded

I had the same problem but we just needed to change the port

#

Then in worked flawlessly

Port is not the problem... still cannot connected
