Finally! This is no longer a problem for me anymore! I found that turning off the router (wifi) completely and setting both iPads on aeroplane mode for 5 minutes that local sever multiplayer worked again! I'd like to thank the following people for helping me out here :
Aleksandra Zajac.
Nigel.
SammyGarza.
Luke Arnould.
Andrew Niere.
Daniel Chi.
Robert Drezwuki.
You helped me so much thanks! It's great to be able to play multiplayer again! (I also hope that I spelt all your names correctly!
🙌🏼
How did you fix the bug (if you did). Or did you just give minecraft a break? ⭐️
What does rebooting the router mean? Keen to try it out on both iPads. Thanks
Awesome! Thanks Daniel Chi for the update! I updated my iPad an hour or so ago and so did my brother. Hopefully it will work for a little while!!
Just got the update and possible suggestions to fix the glitch/bug. I'll be sure to try them all and thanks for the effort!! 🙌🏼
Ok thank you! 👍🏼
I totally understand that the Mojang employees and such are under great stress dealing with other bugs for Minecraft as well. However, I am curious to whether or not this L.A.N glitch/bug is being fixed currently? Also stating that it has now been a week since I updated my Minecraft PE app and still, I cannot connect.
Thanks again!! 🌻
Okay...this glitch (or whatever it is) is common in the new update and bad - not to mention REALLY ANNOYING!! How can it remain unassigned as Andrew Niere said and how can there STILL be no attempt to fix it?! Surely someone with great expertise would have seen this! Come on Mojang! I didn't sign up for nothing!! Please fix this glitch ASAP!!
How do you refresh the minecraft app?
Not double tapping the home screen...but is this what you mean by refreshing the app?
Help me please!! Thanks 🌻
This glitch happened to me around a month ago now. I couldn't connect to any servers when using the same wifi for up to 4 weeks. I'm guessing you'll be waiting a while before you'll be able to connect again, but hopefully some tips below will help:
Turnnoff your wifi completely (literally turn it off at the powerpoint)
Put both iPads onto aeroplane mode for 5 minutes
Try restarting your iPads and leave them both turned off for 10 minutes
Refresh your Minecraft app (double tap the home button and refresh it on BOTH iPads. When you can't connect, get the person hosting the sever to refresh their app and then do the same.)
Hope this helps! 🌻
