I play on a realm with a few friends and we do not use any mods of any kind. A few days ago, I was getting kicked off the realm with this message:
internal exception java.io.ioexception an existing connection was forcibly closed
I played for about 20 seconds and it just booted me off. Rarely I will get lucky and play for about 30 minutes only to receive that fatal message. Sometimes when I join the realm this message also shows up before putting me in the game:
java.lang.nullpointerexception:group
I don't receive a crash report and this is the first time it's happened on the realm. Everyone else is able to connect just fine and not get kicked,
I've reinstalled minecraft, been removed and reinvited back to the realm, worked around firewalls, turned the router on/off, waited a few days to try again, restarted the computer and troubleshooted the router with comcast. The only log file I have is this one:

Truly I am lost in whatever is happening. Many other people that post this are not using realms or are using mods or cracked clients, ending with their threads on other forums having different solutions or just being locked for using a pirated minecraft client.
All of our friends have legitimate clients on this realm and don't use any mods at all.
This is a sign of getting a TCP reset on the connection.
It could be caused by security software on your computer that thinks Minecraft is malware making an unauthorized connection from your computer.
Or it could be caused by having two devices on your home network that are using the same IP address. IP address conflicts result in the multiple devices tearing down connections that they didn't create (but the other device did).
Well I have a PS3, Xbox 360 and 2 laptops but they are all usually off when I go on the realm. Would any of those interfere with the IP address? And if it's the TCP reset, how would I go about fixing that?
