How to Check the Status of Neopets’ Servers

Having trouble connecting to the Neopets website? There’s a good chance that the problem is on their end, and not yours. If you’re here looking up guides about the status of the Neopets servers, then your internet connection is probably fine.

First and foremost, there is no officially sanctioned server tracker for Neopets. There’s no part of the Neopets support base that shows the current status of the server, unfortunately.

With that said, there are a few unofficial server trackers that you can use to check the status of Neopets’ servers. Our favorite one, Is It Up, will do a quick ping to the website’s IP and see if it responds, which is usually a clear indicator of the server status.

There are also official social media outlets to check out for news and updates. Neopets’ main social media account is their Twitter account (@Neopets), so make sure to follow and check it for any server outages.

Keep an eye out for Tweets like this one.

If there’s a global outage for the Neopets website, the Twitter account will usually make some announcement about it. The account also posts when the servers do come back up, so you can be ready to jump back into the game.

Lastly, you can check out the Neopets Subreddit. This is where you can find real fans of the game, and every time the server goes down you can expect lots of people to post about it. If other people are able to play Neopets just fine, but you can’t connect, then the problem may be on your end.

We recommend checking your network and firewall settings to ensure that nothing is blocking your connection to Neopets. If all else fails, a router restart may do the trick. Since each router has a different user interface, you’ll have to consult your router’s manual in order to troubleshoot.

As we mentioned though, if you’re having trouble connecting to Neopets, but your internet seems to be working fine in all other regards, it’s likely that their server is experiencing issues. It’s usually best to just wait for an official announcement from the Neopets team.

That concludes our guide on how to check Neopets’ server status to see if they’re down. If you have any other questions about Neopets, let us know in the comments below!
