By re-installing Minecraft, you can restart this process. However if no computer or user is found with this LAN number/IPV4 address, then you will have no luck. The main reason why this is not working is because after you “Direct Connect” to the server, your computer pings for the host–if it finds them, great. Lastly, you might want to try re-installing Minecraft. **** REMEMBER TO TURN IT BACK ON AFTER!**** Try turning off your firewall, and try this again.
Secondly, especially if you are on Windows, the firewall can play a big role in preventing you from playing with friends. I know, you can’t tell that it is loading due to the absence of a loading sign, however if you put in all of the information and try to join your friend’s game before the “Direct Connect” page is finished loading, it will give you an error. There are a couple of ways to try and get around this roadblock įirst of all, after you open “Direct Connect”, give it at least 45 seconds to fully load. This can be very annoying, as this has happened to me too many times. Often times, while attempting to play with your friends via LAN, you will be confronted with an error message that looks something like this. When you have completed all the steps above, tell them to select “Join Server” at the bottom, and watch the magic happen! If you would like an easier, more reliable way to play Minecraft with friends from anywhere, check out this: When they have typed it in character by character, add a colon directly at the end of this string of characters.Īfter the colon, they need to put in the LAN number you produced earlier after you selected “Open to LAN” (There should be no spaces in between any of the numbers or characters). Next, they need to click the “Direct Connect” option on the bottom of the screen.Īfter they have the Direct Connect screen open, tell them to put in your IPV4 address (with periods and everything). Now call up your friend, (or whatever you use to communicate with them) and have them select the “Multiplayer” option on the home screen.
If you’re not sure what this is or how to find it, there are many helpful articles and videos on the web (should look something like .xx, numbers will vary).
