I want to make a Minecraft server for me and my brother to play on together, we both have Minecraft and i have the server up. I can get on it but I can't figure out how to get him on it. From what I understand I don't need to port forward because we are in the same house and on the same internet. I've tried putting the Ip address in the server address, but it always says it is out of reach.
Honestly I have never put up a server. I downloaded the software and ran everything. I have not done anything like port forwarding, I don't know how to and from what I've read I don't need. I can get on the server I jest can't get him on. We both have a PC both with Windows.
All I want is to have a server for us to play on. Thank you for any help. I really don't know how to do this so any help would be great.
