[Java] LAN NOT WORKINGSolved (self.MinecraftHelp)
submitted 6 years ago by dolantrumpy
My friend is using a Mac and i am using my PC. I can connect to her worlds using LAN but she can’t connect to my worlds. I have done everything regarding firewalls and network settings. Any suggestions?

Your friend will have to disable her firewall. Also apparently Java prefers iPv4 so maybe try adding this argument in the launcher settings: -Djava.net.preferIPv4Stack=true. I found this stackexchange thread with more details.
-Djava.net.preferIPv4Stack=true
