TROUBLESHOOTING MULTIPLAYER CONNECTION ISSUES

• Close Minecraft: Java Edition and reopen it.

• Restart your compunter or device and see if this fixes the issue. Restarting can often clear errors in connections.

• Log out of your Minecraft of Mojang account, close the game, and then log in again.

• If you are using a wireless connection, ensure that you have a stable connection to your router. You may need to reset or restart your router.

• Check your currently running programs for anything that is using your Internet bandwidth and close those programs.

• If you have a firewall, antivirus software, or are using a VPN, check the settings to be sure that is not blocking or slowing your connection.

• Configure your router to use moderate or open Network Access Translation (NAT).
