I've been trying to play LAN games on minecraft (among other games) with people in my house, but we can't seem to connect to each other. For minecraft When they start a LAN world, I can't see it. When I start a LAN world, they can see it but can't connect. After searching, I figure that the issues was in the "Local Area Connection Status" properties. Under the sharing tab, the Internet Connection Sharing box is unticked. When I click it and try setting a home networking connection, it says the following:
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
An error occurred while Internet Connection Sharing was being enabled.
Internet Connection Sharing can't be enabled. A LAN connection is already configured with the IP address that is required for automatic IP addressing.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I don't know if this would help, but when I click the drop down menu under the checkbox, there are three networks:
"Wireless Network Connection"
"Wireless Network Connection 2"
"Hamachi"
Help would be greatly appreciated. Steps for solutions would be very helpful, and if you have questions that could help provide an answer then please ask. I will do my best to answer.
