### Setting up a join method for game consoles
-After you set up BedrockConnect, you will need to set up a join method to connect to it on game consoles. Some helpful resources:
+If your console is Playstation or Xbox and on the same network/LAN as the machine running BedrockCoonnect, you can join BedrockConnect as-is via LAN by going to the "Worlds" tab in-game.
-- Windows tutorial (DNS Method): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AW5X7-qnvLk
-
-- Linux tutorial: https://github.com/Pugmatt/BedrockConnect/wiki/Setting-up-on-Linux
+If you are on a different game console or want to connect outside of your network, you will need to set-up a join method by checking out the resources below:
- "Add Friend" method - [MCXboxBroadcast repo](https://github.com/MCXboxBroadcast/Broadcaster?tab=readme-ov-file#standalone) (Install and set target server to BedrockConnect instance)
-- If you're looking to host a DNS server from scratch for the DNS method, [click here details on what zones to configure](https://github.com/Pugmatt/BedrockConnect/wiki/Using-your-own-DNS-server)
