What Is HTN Panel? How We Make Local Hosting Easy

HTN Panel is a Windows desktop application that lets you install, configure, and manage game servers on your own PC with an intuitive, familiar and modern interface, allowing you to run servers without the need for port forwarding and other unnecessary headaches.

What Is HTN Panel

HTN Panel is a modern Windows app that helps you deploy, run, and manage your servers locally with less difficulty, bringing a very aged space up to date.

Everything you need to manage your local game server

Manage your game servers easily — stop, start, restart, edit or add files, make backups, or give your friends and team access to your server, all while it runs on your own PC.

Built for your Windows device

Our application is designed and built from the ground up for the average consumer. It runs directly on your own PC or any Windows device — yes, including VPS's.

Made to make local hosting easy

HTN Panel makes local hosting simple and easy for the average consumer. We remove the need for any technical experience, making setup and everyday admin tasks easy, so you can just launch, monitor, and maintain your server without any learning curve. We even remove the need for difficult and outdated things such as port forwarding, using our built-in tunnel system to bypass it.
