Many years ago this worked on old versions. Been broken for ages. My kids are used to entering an IP address and port number in direct connect ... so there is an educational aspect 😃
Adding "-Djava.net.preferIPv4Stack=true" to the command line arguments in the client only (not game serving) worked for me - it appeared in the multi-player games list.
All my Macs are Wi-Fi, and have been for years. Obviously most of them have Ethernet as well. My machine does not have Ethernet but I have got and used a thunderbolt Ethernet adapter, and ifconfig and System Preferences network list 14 different network interfaces.
My network does not have IPv6, but obviously like all modern operating systems, IPv6 is configured by default - even if it's just local link-local.
My Wi-Fi connection on all machines is at the top of the list. Disabling other networks or IPv6 machine wide is not an option for me - and I don't think it's a good idea.Â
I note from above: "This issue also occurs on Windows when the computer has multiple active network interfaces."
