god dammit. I have been searching for a fix for this error (Internal Exception: java.net.SocketException: Connection Reset) but i cant fix it when joining my friends realm. I get about 1-10 seconds on the server and boom. ERROR. I was previously fine on the server, but for some reason it just started happening and i can't play.
I have tried:
flushdns
New ip address
New mac address
restarting
downloading java 16
redownloading minecraft
all of the solutions on https://bugs.mojang.com/browse/MC-227913
using a vpn (ends up with disconnected instead)
changing firewall settings for java
I have been stuck with this for ages but NOTHING WORKS
Its not an issue with my friend's realm since everyone else is not having issues
