How do I check if a TCP port is open online?

Enter your server's IP address or domain followed by a colon and the port number (e.g. 1.1.1.1:80 or example.com:443) and run a TCP check. The tool attempts a TCP handshake from 50+ global nodes and reports whether each connection succeeded, was refused, or timed out.

What is the difference between a port being refused versus timing out?

A refused connection (TCP RST) means the port is actively closed — the server replied to reject the connection. A timeout means no reply was received at all, which typically indicates a firewall is silently dropping packets before they reach the server or application.

Which TCP ports can I test?

Any valid TCP port from 1 to 65535. Common examples include port 80 (HTTP), 443 (HTTPS), 22 (SSH), 25 (SMTP), 3306 (MySQL), 5432 (PostgreSQL), and 3389 (RDP). No login or special permissions required — the check only verifies whether the TCP handshake completes.

My port is open locally but fails from external nodes — why?

If a port works locally but fails from external nodes, something between the internet and your server is blocking it — commonly a cloud security group, iptables rule, upstream ISP filter, or geoblocking policy. Running the check from multiple regions helps identify whether the block is global or specific to certain countries or ASNs.
