Minecraft beta edition

Having same problem connecting to friends worlds. The only one working is on Realms....frustrating. Before Realms we could connect most times but since it was opened no other worlds are connecting. We can sometimes connect to new friends worlds on Minecraft,
which is odd.

 

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

Hello guys, i got the same problem on my Windows 10 PC.

I can see my friend playing Minecraft at his survival world and i cant join him - i click on him in friend list, it's says "Connecting to Multiplayer world", after some seconds it goes error: Connection time out, unable to connect to world.
