Windows 10: I can't join a friends world on Minecraft Bedrock Edition

I have tried for the past few days to try and join my friends' games' and it won't allow me. Some friends can join but others can't, and it's different for each person. I am able to join a couple of them with no hassle, but I an unable to join others. People who can't join me can join some of the same people I can, and some I can't. No two people have the same people they can join, and it's not device specific because a few of us tried to join with different devices only to get the same issues for the same people. We don't understand why this is happening.

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

Similar to this probelm, I play on Minecraft Education Edition, and I CANNOT join my friend's worlds. It always says, Unable to connect to world. So sad I can't join other people's world. It might be because I am ranked as a student and not a teacher.

 

Minecraft: Windows 10 Edition: I can't join my friend's world

Whenever I try to join my friends world (we are on different networks) I can't join. It says "Unable to connect to world." I make sure he invites me to his world before I try to join. When I click the Accept button from the invite, it loads up Minecraft
and says "Generating world Locating server" It does this for about 20 seconds before saying "Unable to connect to world." I can still connect to public multiplayer servers but I can't join his world.

 

Minecraft: Windows 10 Edition: I can't join my friend's world

Hey there Ashwin, I'm having problems connecting to my friends world. I have a laptop with minecraft windows 10 edition (i got it from buying minecraft) and she has minecraft pocket edition on an ipad mini, the strange thing was that when i was by her house
i had no trouble at all connecting to her world I would just open minecraft win 10, click play, click friends then click on her world but ever since i came back to my house i would click play then friends and I would see her world but when i click it to join
it say locating server and it stays on that screen for long. I've tried closing minecraft and canceling and rejoining but its not helping she even tried inviting me but that didnt work either. Do you have any other solutions?

(sorry for making this so long)
