Hello ive been playing minecraft alpha (tho the lan button is rather new ) forever ago and all this time i have never been able to host a lan at my house at others yes but at mine no :c
so my issue is that when i host a lan server. the computer with an other mc account see the server open . But can not connect . and i have tried alot of things like direct connect and iv4 Ip and ipconfig and the port 25565 and a few other things. when also trying the default.
We have the same computer windows 8 ( dident work when we had vista laptops also ) same wifi connect ( and also we have to wi fi networks to pick from ) it uses a d-link . and i just dont understand why this has been such an issue ive been trying to do this for Ever now.
need anymore info please ask . i have tried a lot of things and my friends have tried some few things . in my opinion i feel like it has to do with parental blocks or router issues ? But ik my computer works i have set it up in other places and played minecraft and other games. But any how can i please get help ?
At your house, can your friend host or does it basically not work for anyone at your house?
Because your computer works on other networks I would first look at your wireless router.
Some of them have features that can prevent wireless clients from talking to each other, instead only allowing them to talk to the internet.
DLink for example has Guest Zones. By default these can only talk to the Internet unless you enable zone routing
