Access cPanel on my server

Here's how to access cPanel via a domain or IP address.

  • Your domain's DNS information must propagate before you can access cPanel with your domain name. If you cannot access the cPanel interface with your domain name, use your domain's IP address.
  • Your domain can take approximately 24-48 hours to propagate after you set up your website, After your domain propagates, navigate to your website via your domain name (for example, https://example.com:2083).

To access cPanel, perform the following steps:

  1. Enter one of the following URLs in your preferred browser. Replace 192.168.0.1 with your IP address and example.com with your domain name:

    • https://192.168.0.1:2083 — This URL allows you to access cPanel over an encrypted connection with your IP address.
    • https://example.com:2083 — This URL allows you to access cPanel over an encrypted connection with your domain name.
    • http://192.168.0.1:2082 — This URL allows you to access cPanel over an unencrypted connection with your IP address.
    • http://example.com:2082 — This URL allows you to access cPanel over an unencrypted connection with your domain name.
  2. Enter your Username and Password, and then select Log in.
