Cannot join my friend's peer-to-peer server

Me and 5 other people are playing with one person hosting. Everyone else is able to connect to my friend's peer-to-peer server but I can't. Whenever I try to connect it's always stuck on "Connecting to server" and nothing happens. This seems to happen with most of the peer-to-peer servers, in the game client the server IP is not shown and the port is "-1".

It may be an issue outside the game itself because when I right click to view my friend's games through steam it shows the game but it'll say that the server is not responding.

I've tried:

Disabling anti-virus

Disabling firewall

Reinstalling

Changing serverconfig to<property name="ServerDisabledNetworkProtocols" value=""/>

 
Try changing serverconfig to<property name="ServerDisabledNetworkProtocols" value="LiteNetLib"/>

Also make sure they have all the ports open.

Thanks for the response, unfortunately neither of these seem to work either

 
some ISP's are blocking this now, down here in Aus its becoming more and more common to get stuck behind CGNAT - they ran out of IPv4 addresses and share them between users.

I spent months trying to find out what was going on with my suddenly dead games servers, only to find out this had happened and a simple call to the ISP fixed it.

*If* you have this problem, you can find out by googling 'what is my ip' and seeing if it matches the one in your modem/router - if they dont match, you've been stuck behind CGNAT and need to talk to your ISP.
