Could not connect to server over some VPN connections
Expected:
- Open Minecraft Launcher
- Enter credentials
- Logged in ready to play,
- OR if unable to connect, allow to play offline
Actual:
- Open Minecraft Launcher
- Enter credentials
- Error message "Could not connect to server." and unable to play offline
Step 3 (actual) happens, for me, on averageg 40% of the time when using VPNs. Switching VPN connection usually resolves this (multiple VPN switches in some cases).
P.s.
Similar to MCL-5665 but unresolved and unable to even play offline.
Environment
Linux 64 bit java edition, Minecraft launcher 2.1.3676
