Ah, there it is—if your ping says “connection timed out,” then something on the network is throwing down the denial hammer. Here’s what could be up:
-
Windows Firewall Settings:
- On the server machine, search for “Firewall” in Windows.
- Go to “Advanced Settings,” and ensure inbound/outbound rules for your Minecraft’s port (default: 25565) are explicitly allowed.
-
Network Isolation:
- If you’re on something funky like a guest Wi-Fi network, sometimes it restricts devices from talking to each other. Ensure both machines are on the same main network (and not on “Public”-type profiles).
Fix those, and let me know how it rolls! If it times out the same way, something bigger might be blocking AMP’s networking access, like a router setting. Let’s not go there just yet, though. Keep me updated!
