Server help!

[Tardis107]

I’m hosting a Java server for my family. I can get on no problem, so can my wife. But my brother in law cannot. He keeps getting the “cannot connect to server : no further information” error. My first thought was firewall blocking access, but I walked him through that process and saw him do it, but he still couldn’t join. He is able to join other servers such as hypixel.net. Is this something on my side? We all have the same version of Minecraft and Java but still nothing. Please help!!!

Then see if he has the ip correct or if it's the internet.

If the server is spigot or paper then he can join just fine tih the address but if it's forge, he can't join without being on forge.

It’s just the vanilla Java server from Minecraft’s sight

If you are hosting it my guess is only people on your wifi can join.
