Hello Minecraft Community,
For some reason whenever i try to do LAN at my house with my friends it doesn't work. As in the lan world does not show up on my friends's multiplayer list although it shows up on mine. Yes we are on the same wifi network, yes i opened it to LAN and yes he is at my house. Any suggestions on things to try?

Have you tried using Hamachi? LAN usually works at ours when no internet or with. Wired and wireless count as LAN.

Well yes we have been on the same hamachi network all the times we have tried.

Have you been typing in the Hamachi IP address then the port specified in Direct Connect? Otherwise, I don't think it would work.

So the hamachi IP... okay. Would it affect anything though because i have a server that uses hamachi.

I tried this today and it did not work. Any other suggestions? :\
