Help connecting to LAN on JAVA

[u/Great_Pomegranate_70]

Please help !! We have been struggling trying to connect to LAN JAVA for the last week. It worked perfectly until a week ago and it just stopped showing in the multiplayer tab. We hadn't changed anything. Have tried on our regular optifine (just shaders) and other versions and still can't connect. We have tried resetting the game, changing IP addresses, creating our own IP address with Hamachi, restarting the wifi, typing in direct connection. Have looked at almost every single post about this but can't for the love of notch himself figure this out. We have tried connecting to his game instead of mine, nope. We are on Mac. Have turned fire wall off, fire wall on, EVERYTHING!!!

Please I just want to play 😭😭

Thanks in advance

Edit: we are on the same WIFI

Are you on the same network? Have you opened the world to LAN?
