Wanted to add, while I am able to reproduce this problem 100% on 1.19.62, I encountered the same problem almost 100% of the time on 1.19.60.
In about a dozen attempts on 1.19.60 (LAN server on iPad, iPad or Windows 10 clients), I was only able to connect successfully once (from Windows client)
Therefore, this problem may have been introduced in 1.19.60 or earlier. But 1.19.62 may have made it worse
Same problem. All devices running Minecraft 1.19.62
Local game server running on an iPad (iPadOS 16.2, 20C65).
Can not connect either from another iPad (iPadOS 16.2, 20C65) or Windows 10 Home (19045.2604). 100% reproducible with one of two behaviors:.
(1) Sometimes, LAN games do not show up under the Friends tab at all
(2) Other times, LAN games under the Friends tab as "Joinable Friends". In the past, it used to show up under "LAN Games". Not sure if the change was intentional, o a symptom of the problem.
If you try to connect to that game,the "Connecting to multiplayer game" screen shows for a while before failing with a screen displaying "Connection timed out. Unable to connect to world."
Screenshots available on request, if you think that will help.
I have experienced this problem since at least 1.19.60.
All devices currently running Minecraft 1.19.62 and reproduce this problem 100% of the time. Our family is completely unable to play multiplayer on the LAN.
