Nothing has changed. Still cant connect to my local server.
Updated everything to latest version. All clients and server.
On the PS4/Xbox versions under the FRIENDS tab there is a section LAN GAMES.
The Switch version doesn't have LAN GAMES.
The PC version under SERVERS has an option to ADD SERVER.
Thats the problem There is nothing for the Switch version to see or connect to any server.
You NEED to add the LAN GAMES option to the Switch version.
THATS what I'm still waiting for.
WHY is it missing from the Switch version?
If a friend connects to the server on the xbox or ps4, I can connect to their game and I can access the server that way.
The game still plays the same, no problems. So again WHY cant the Switch connect directly and see servers like the other console versions?

I'll try again to make this simple to understand and you can question why?
I downloaded YOUR minecraft bedrock server. (I have 2 versions now)
It was the NAS version (Linux server) I had it on my QNAP NAS.
Now the PC, Xbox, PS4 can all see and access the server no problems.
Now here is the problem.
The Switch cant see it at all.
If a friend is playing on any level the Switch can see and join that friend..... UNLESS they are on that LAN server then they cant see them anymore.
The Switch version like all other versions has a tab, servers. So we know the Switch version CAN connect to servers so why not my local LAN server?
THATS my problem. WHY cant it connect to my local LAN server?
As I said I now have both versions, Linux and Windows. Both set up the same as you can copy/paste the worlds and the PC, Xbox and PS4 can all see the local lan server but the switch still cant see either version.
Resolving as a duplicate of MCPE-168661, which has already been resolved as Invalid by Mojang. In the future please do not duplicate your own reports.
Resolving temporarily as Awaiting Response. Is this still an issue in the latest version of the game (1.20.1)?
