I installed forge 1.16.5 -36.1.24 and and attempted to open a single player world to LAN to play with others on my network. The world seems to open to LAN fine, however, when I attempt to connect to the world from a second pc it does not seem to find the world. I then tried to direct connect but to no success, I received a connection timed out error. I then tested opening the world to LAN in vanilla and it worked and I could connect fine from the second pc. next I thought perhaps if I made a server on the host pc and connected to that from all other pc on the LAN it may work, however, once again this did not work. I have checked all firewalls, All pc's are connected to the same router via WIFI. This seems to be a problem with forge as LAN works well with vanilla Minecraft.
