So I have two different account and I'm trying to put both in a LAN server. But when I try to look for the local network that my other account is hosting, it's not there, help?

Hello there RadiantGaming,
I think I know what your problem is!
Here are a few things you might be doing wrong:
When you are trying to connect to a LAN server you must be connected to the same router / internet connection
When you open a LAN server to make it connectable you need to press "esc" (It brings up the menu) make sure the "Open to LAN" button is activated.
When you are connecting to the LAN server from the other computer make sure you click multiplayer to find it!
Let me know if this works!

Hello RadiantGaming,
When u open your world to lan it shows the port its hosted on.
Make ur other account connect to that port just by typing in (direct connect or add server) ':xxxxx'
replace xxxxx with the port and don't type the '.

This way you should be able to connect to your other accounts Lan world.

Are you using the "Open to LAN" option in the Settings menu? If so, make sure the firewall on your hosting computer is allowing Minecraft to accept incoming connections.
