For myself, I'm just going to cancel Realms and go back to playing on the LAN, so much for opening my boys' games up to their friends, it's too frustrating and I don't want to bother with figuring out which JAVA each boy is using let alone those of their friends.
I have the same problem. https://bugs.mojang.com/browse/MC-72222
Oh thanks. I am going to comment on those too.
Can you explain what exactly must be going on with the network? Because it is happening frequently with us as well and very frustrating.
Well I don't understand what you're saying. I had my complaint closed as a repeat and I was moved into this thread, but our complaint had zero to do with the version of MC. I had updated, fresh vanilla MC on both computers, was trying to play with Realms to try it out and it was disastrous, constantly kicking out whichever kid wanted to play on the server. That does happen once in a while in multiplayer too but nothing like this, it was basically unplayable.
