Can't connect to the Minecraft world of my friend on PS4

So basically, since it is now possible to crossplay with PS4 and all other Bedrock platforms, my friend on PS4 got really excited, and wanted to try it out with me (I am on Windows 10 Edition). So he did what he was suppost to, created a microsoft account, linked it, added me as a friend, I accepted. All that went really well.

After he created a world that had multiplayer on, I could see him in the "Friends" tab, 1/8 players on the server. I tried to click it and join. It was loading for a bit. It said "Connecting to Multiplayer" or something like that, and after a while, "Can't connect to world".

Any help?

    I legit have been reading all the posts in this thread, it feels as if i was in reddit. Only that reddot has actual solutions, its not the fault of anyone here, in fact i blame microsoft for not doing anything about this matter for almost 3 months. Im not the one having the problems when people join, mostly amyone can join exept one guy who was literally my partner during the creation of my whole minecraft world. It truly saddens me to not be able to play with him. I believe the reason for this is behond his NAT type but still, the older version worked fine until this update ruined it. Please do something.

    I can play the new one only with ppl on the same wifi as me. So I can play minecraft with my husband on his ps4, cross platform friends nope, other ps4's still no, old 4j minecraft works with others on ps4 only but none of the fun new stuff :( i have tried to delete it and redownload it but still nothing.  Type3  Internet connection could be to blame but, they need tp patch it because my speeds are good.

Ive tried searching up this issues and find people complaining about the same problem and well no one helping out not even a video or something telling us how to fix this.

    Hey there, x WowBobWow x

    Type to means it is Moderate. This may be one of the reasons why you are unable to connect. 

    On a computer, please can you:

    1. Press start Key & R togehter,
    2. Type "CMD" and press enter,
    3. Type: ipconfig and press enter,
    4. Open a web browser,
    5. Type your gateway IP address into it (for example: 192.168.0.0) - This will direct you to your router's settings,
    6. You should see an option to change your NAT Settings in Connectivity.

    Please change your NAT Type and see if your friend can join you. 

    Hope this helps, 

    Regards,
