“Connection timed out”

Corey SLL · Jul 22, 2023

When joining my friends in minecraft it says “connection timed out”

My internet connection is stable, I’ve never had this issue before when joining them, I use to restart my game and it would work but that isn’t the case this time, I’ve uninstalled and re installed, restarted my game, tried joining others, but nothing. It’s been happening for a couple days now. I know it isn’t the internet connection.

Any other solutions?

Hello Corey, this is Manuela. I'm an Independent Advisor and community user like you, ready to assist with this.

I’m sorry to hear you’re having some trouble when trying to play with your friends on Minecraft. Let’s try to sort this out.

However, before that, I would like to ask some questions:
Are you playing on Xbox, PC or mobile phone?
Are you able to play more games with your friends, or is Minecraft the only game affected?
Would like I know if tried connecting your device to a different source of internet, like a mobile hotspot via Wi-Fi connection?

Additionally, I appreciate it if you can tell me what’s your NAT type.
You can review this on Xbox consoles by opening settings > network configuration.

Try clearing your console' cache by holding down the power button on your console for 10 seconds.

Retry afterwards.

Hey, I'm currently experiencing the exact same problem as the one you have just solved. I'm also with Bigpond Telstra, and my connection keeps going down every time, I attempt to play online. How did you go about resolving your problem? I've contacted Telstra
and spoken to their technical support team and they seemed clueless to it as my connection was running perfectly. Please help me, it's driving me mad!

Those were the first two, and then I installed Java and got this.

But would installing something on my PC effect my xbox console?
