Issue with Xbox Remote Play - Lemmy.world

I have an issue with Xbox Remote Play on my Series S. Every time I try to connect to my console outside my home network, I get a connection error where my console is found, but my mobile device can’t connect to it. I tried everything. I used several guides and opened all necessary ports in my router. While my Xbox gives me a go to use Remote Play, I still get the error. I even tried using a wired connection instead and also turned off private relay, but it still doesn’t work. Connecting inside my home network works absolutely fine. Does anyone know a solution for that or am I screwed?

I suck at networking, so take my help with a grain of salt, but some questions come to mind:

  • What specific error message are you getting?
  • What NAT type is your Xbox using?
  • What ports did you open specifically and what type of ports were they?
  • What brand of router do you use?

As I said, my Xbox gives condition green for remote play after the test.

I’m guessing that it’s because you are using a 5G Modem as your Internet. You are behind a CG-NAT which can cause all kinds of funky things with streaming outside of your own WiFi.

It’s a hybrid router.

Your probably still on a CG-NAT, which means it’s not gonna work well.

I’m going to have to agree with @[email protected] unfortunately. You’re best bet for next step is probably to contact Xbox support and see if there is anything they can do.
