Find IRC Servers

Several sites maintain lists of IRC servers that you can connect to.

Different servers on the same network sometimes carry slightly different sets of channels. You should try to find a server on the Internet close to you (see the IRC ping command), so that you get the fastest possible response.

Lists of IRC servers can be found at the following sites.

• Open Directory - IRC Servers
• Yahoo - IRC Networks

• DALnet Server Listings
• EFnet Servers
• Index of server lists
• MIRC Servers and Networks
• Undernet.
