Local with WiFi works but Ethernet does not (STEAM)


CHANCE112
  • Pending

Choosing to host a game using an ethernet cable exclusively will result in others not being able to see the game under "LAN." If WiFI is used while hosting, the game appears on the LAN server list as normal. Tried this back and forth between two computers so I'm not 100% sure if it's just my network being iffy. Using the c_connect command does work so thankfully this issue doesn't prevent local games from being playable, it just prevents it from appearing on the server list. (Both PCs are Windows 10 and are connected to the same network)


Steps to Reproduce

Disable any WiFi adapters on your PC and host a local game using ONLY Ethernet. The server may not appear in the "Browse Games - (LAN)" Filter.

Thank for the info.

Same here. My desktop doesn't have wifi so I had to go Friends Only... 148 ping vs our usual 7-20 on local
