“Join Multiplayer Games” Settings
If you have your settings set to block joining multiplayer games, you can’t join any multiplayer games in Minecraft, including shared local worlds, Realms or servers. To enable multiplayer in Minecraft, make sure this setting is set to ‘Allow.’

However, just like ASCllnaut, that setting was already turned on for my children. In other words I'm in the same boat, we can play on the LAN but not on a realm.

I have the same problem I want to play F1 or Forza multiplayer and I have xbox live gold but I can’t join a session. Sometimes it shows me the error code N06 but not always.

Yes, I get an error message saying can’t connect to multiplayer game. What happens is I will start a multiplayer game and then my sister will see it in the join multiplayer game menu. She’ll click on the game and it will start loading then the error message will show up saying can’t connect to multiplayer game. I’ve tried starting the game on both devices but both devices get the same error message. I’m not sure if the update is the right problem but that’s the only thing I could think of. Both devices have the same DLC’s as well.

When I try to join a multiplayer game on State of Decay 2 Juggernaut, it says unable to connect game- you must have a populated community to join the game. One friend was able to join but I can not. WHY?
