Hello,
I can't play LAN on Minecraft, here's what I've done: my sister and I have a laptop and a desktop computer. I go to Minecraft > single player, press escape and click on "play on LAN" and launch it. My sister goes to Minecraft > multiplayer and she can't find me, nothing, even though we are in the same house and on the same network, and we both disabled the firewall. And the worst part is that yesterday we were able to play just fine, so WHY?!?

Hi! In Minecraft, in local multiplayer I feel like it’s bugged... (Like the whole Minecraft actually :laugh: ) You need to enter the IP of the PC that "hosts the server" or launch in LAN to then connect on the PC where you go to "multiplayer", in short:
On the PC where you launch in LAN, it says something like ".. open on port XXXXX" basically there are 5 digits, keep them somewhere, and on this same PC launch the console and type "ipconfig" to find out your IP, then you combine the two: YOUR_IP:YOUR_PORT
And you write "YOUR_IP:YOUR_PORT" as if it were the address of a new server (like Hypixel for example where it’s "mc.hypixel.net")
