When attempting to join a multiplayer server I host on my home LAN on a separate machine (Server 2008 R2) I am immediately sent to the main menu and am unable to connect to the server until I close the client and relaunch it. After relaunching the client I have no issues connecting. There is no error message posted or log created. Checking the Server log I only see the usual server disconnect message that you would see when you typically disconnect from a server

No error message is displayed. I checked the crash log on my desktop and nothing was generated in the log either. This started within the past week and have determined that it is not the server having the issue. Not sure if this is a possible Java error since no log is created for minecraft. After the initial server connect crashing to the main menu I can connect to other servers just fine but whatever server I attempted to connect to (happens on any server I try home hosted and otherwise) that resulted in the crash to the main menu is listed in red with an error message instead of the server MOTD. However the server itself is up and running just fine.
Please disregard this issue. I was having it for several days but it seems to have corrected itself and is no longer occurring or reproducable.
Can confirm, some servers will send you to main menu when you double click to join instead of using the button, and then you get the communication error between client and server as said in red text instead of MOTD, and whenever you try to connect to that server, you get end of stream.
When you say you are unable to connect to the server until you close the client and relaunch, is there any error messages stating what the issue might be?
