Can't connect to friend hosting

[Dujer]

Unable to join game with some friends (They are sharing wi-fi connection) who just upgraded their internet service. I keep getting "...server disc (time out), try again later". My friends can sometimes join my session.... but cannot interact with stuff. NP for other friends online though. Solutions? Gotta be something at their end, right? We are all on X-Box.

Some things to check for network problems.

1: VPN or proxy can cause problems with the game. Use split tunneling and add an exception for the game. Or turn off the vpn. (both clients and server)

2: Any AntiVirus can cause network problems. Add an exception for the game folder and the save folder in antivirus software. (on both clients and server)

3: Ports not open. Add port forwarding for ports 26900 TCP and 26900-26903 UDP in the host machine's router. (not needed on clients)

4: Use Ethernet, not Wifi.

5: oem lighting/gaming software like from Dell, Asus, HP, Corsair, Razor, etc. Uninsall all this junkware.
