LAN between Xbox and Steam on Linux?
I've got MCC for Xbox and Steam, and my preferred way to play on PC is with Linux Mint 22. MCC works great on LM22, except apparently my PC and Xbox can't see each other when set to LAN--I don't have this issue on Windows 11. Any ideas what I might need to tinker with?

My connection is wired for both, with my console and PC being connected to the same router.

Thanks.

LAN Crossplay is possible for Custom games and Firefight.
However, Crossplay Co-Op is not supported as the game queries for platform and results in a warning message typically and if you can actually get into the Co-Op campaign "usually Halo3 is a good bet" at the first -un-announced- loading zone the two different platforms will de-sync resulting in a connection error "Host has left the Game" with this in mind there are plenty of guides to fix this issue between Linux and Windows clients.

You may still need to be connected to Xbox Live.

Hope this answers your question sufficiently.

I am still connected to Xbox Live, I was just making it clear that it's not a wi-fi problem in this case. I can host a LAN lobby for MCC between Windows 11 and Xbox, but not between Linux and Xbox. I don't know why. Could you please direct me to a guide to fix that, if you know of several?
