Xbox connection issue

[lilslim]

What happened?

I have a running instance of BedrockConnect running on my network. I have multiple people connecting to it, all of them being Xbox players. Some of them connect to the server-list server (main instance and mine) the people that can connect are all using Xbox one s consoles (not series s) the people that can't connect are all using the new-gen S&X and the original console.

Excepted Behaviour?

Additional Context

all players are confirmed using IPv4. my server-list server and DNS are at 73.98.154.113 feel free to dig there and connect to it but obviously be kind to our world if you connect to it. maybe I just missed a domain name or maybe they need to be updated in the readme?

One more thing I forgot to add. There are about 20 people that connect. and all are about 10 miles away from the DNS and instance. So I don't think that geographical distance is a problem here

If none of the DNSs seem to be working for the following individuals in question, and IPv6 is disabled (It's not so much about having IPv4 on, but that IPv6 in particular should NOT be enabled in the router), there's a chance that their networks might be forcing a DNS across the network. (Not 100% sure how this works, but just basing this off of discussions with others that have had this issue in the past)

The following solutions can be attempted in this case:

• The obvious: Have the individuals run through troubleshooting. With the amount of people there could just be some mistypings: https://github.com/Pugmatt/BedrockConnect/wiki/Troubleshooting
• The individuals can try setting the DNS directly inside their router settings.
• Instead of using the DNS method, they can connect to the server-list server through LAN. If the individuals have a computer running on the same network, they can host a BedrockConnect instance locally by doing the following:
  • On PC, Mac, or Linux, download this JAR: https://github.com/Pugmatt/BedrockConnect/releases
  • Make sure Java 8 or higher is installed.
  • In command prompt or terminal, run the following command: java -jar BedrockConnect-1.0-SNAPSHOT.jar nodb=true
  • When in Minecraft on Xbox, go to the "Friends" tab, and the server-list server should be showing under LAN servers and available to join.
• If the individual doesn't have a computer, they can try using "BedrockTogether" on mobile: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y2X_hhrsSAk
