LAN Games[]

A local area network (LAN) game is a type of multiplayer game that allows other people in your local network (i.e. just the people connected to your router/switch) to join a Minecraft world.

Minecraft lan connection timed out

Players over the internet cannot connect unless other workarounds (such as port forwarding or Hamachi) are set up.

Java Edition[]

Hosting a LAN server[]

To open an active single player world to LAN:

Open the pause menu
Click "Open to LAN"
Optionally change the default game mode and/or whether players may use cheats
Click "Start LAN World"

It is also possible to start a LAN world by the command line with .

After a world has been opened to LAN, a confirmation message will be sent in the chat, for example: "Local game hosted on port 50000" This port may need to be provided to joining players to help them connect.

On the technical side, a Minecraft client with an opened LAN game sends a UDP multicast to the local address 224.0.2.60:4445 every 1.5 seconds.

Other clients then listen for this multicast to show your game in their multiplayer menu.
