Hello this is my first post on this forum and I hope you can all help me out! I recently purchased Minecraft for my laptop and I'm loving it so far. The only problem I am facing is trying to join my friends world when he visits. I I click multiplayer and his world will not show up at all. He has it open to a LAN world and I even tried reinstalling and installing java. I also installed Java TM Platform SE Binary which his computer has but I could still not join his world.
So what might the problem be to prevent me from being able to join his world? When I was at his house on his wifi network I was able to join fine. Is it my wifi network or my laptop? I hope someone out there knows the problem and can let me know as I feel I am not getting my moneys worth.
PS: My friend and I both have Dell Inspiron 15 laptops running Windows 8.1. The only differences in our laptops are mine has a 750GB Hard Drive and his has a 500GB Hard Drive, mine has a 4th Gen Intel Core i5 Processor and his has a 3rd Gen Intel Core i3 Processor. Both of these laptops were purchased in November 2013.
