Minecraft Windows 10 Edition - (Unable to connect to world) Friend can't join me and I can't join friend

Whenever we try to connect to each other's worlds through the Xbox app it says "Unable to connect to world". We can play together on a realms server, and can join other servers, just not each other.

I've changed my NAT type to open, and port forwarded all the required ports for the Xbox app. Still nothing.

I've tried using a VPN to several different countries but still has the same results.

We are both using Minecraft: Windows 10 Edition.

We have both uninstalled and reinstalled Minecraft, no luck.

    Hey,

    I was wondering if there was any steps available for Xbox? Me and my girlfriend have been playing nonstop but a little while ago she wasn't able to join me and I couldn't join her like the same problem this person had but the difference is we are both on Xbox. We thought it was me because I have been hit with a Double NAT but I have no problems playing with other people except for her. So is there any steps I could take to help her fix it since she can't play with anyone unless it's on servers?

    Thank you.

    I've done the same exact thing dozens of times, and still no luck.  A year later, and there is no fix and no acknowledgement from Microsoft.  Just sad really
