  1. Minecraft LAN not working for me.


    Me and my little brother are trying to make a Minecraft world on LAN. But whenever I make a world, it tells him I have multiplayer disabled, but I don’t. So then he tries to make a world and it works for me. Why can’t he join my LAN world. I have Gamepass, but he doesn’t but why should that make him unable to join a WI-FI world. And only let me join him.

    :)

    Unable to Connect to world 1.19.41

    Hello, I am using Windows 11 and I Don't play other games on PC besides Minecraft and like I said before both of us have reinstalled Minecraft, but it still does not work without LAN. However, whenever he comes over, it works just fine with LAN.
    My NAT type is Moderate. There weird thing is that a few months ago (Without LAN) everything was just fine.

    Thank you,

    Minecraft Xbox LAN Not Working

    Hi,

    I am using bedrock edition. I can host lan worlds but not join a lan world on Xbox. I’ll try communicating this to mojang support if I can.

    Minecraft Xbox LAN Not Working

    Hello,

    Could you specify if it is Java or Bedrock?

    Though I cannot help you with in-game issues (that is nothing Xbox cannot change or fix because it is within the game) I recommend contacting Mojang support and seeing if there is something that Xbox can do on our end to help assist with this issue. For example, if it is a network setting within the Xbox we can try that, however if it is within Minecraft itself, it may be an issue with the way the game is communicating with the hardware.

    You can contact support here:

    Minecraft crossplay LAN not working

    Hello Matt S, my name is Jose, and I am an independent advisor. I am delighted to be able to assist you.

    I was drawn to your case, and I will provide solutions based on my knowledge. If this doesn't help, I will guide you as best as possible so you can take appropriate action according to your situation. I also regret hearing that you are experiencing issues with the cross-play functionality in Minecraft. Here are some suggestions you could try to resolve this problem:

    Check Internet Connection:
    Ensure that both devices have a stable internet connection. A stable connection is essential for cross-play functionality.

    Update Minecraft:
    Make sure both the PC and mobile versions of Minecraft are updated to the latest available version. Updates often address compatibility issues.

    Review Privacy Settings:
    Check the privacy settings on both Minecraft accounts and ensure they are configured to allow cross-play.

    Log Out and Log In:
    Try logging out of both accounts and then log back in. Sometimes, this can reset the connection and resolve temporary issues.

    Check Network Settings:
    Ensure that the network settings on both devices allow communication between them. You can review the network settings in each device's configuration.

    Review Xbox Live Settings:
    Since you are using Game Pass Ultimate, check the Xbox Live settings on both accounts to ensure they are linked correctly.

    Contact Technical Support:
    If the issues persist, consider reaching out to Minecraft or Xbox technical support for additional assistance. They may have specific information regarding connectivity issues.

    Minecraft Technical Support: https://help.minecraft.net/hc/en-us
    Xbox Technical Support: https://support.xbox.com/

    I hope one of these suggestions helps you resolve the problem, and you can enjoy cross-play in Minecraft with your son again. Good luck!

    If you have any further questions or need additional assistance, please do not hesitate to contact us. We are here to help.

    Best regards,
    Jose.
