minecraft multiplayer not working

Hello @TheUniesLeader!

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.’

For further assistance, please check Manage Xbox online safety and privacy settings | Xbox Support and Troubleshoot changing online safety or privacy settings on Xbox | Xbox Support articles.

Ask your friend to do this step on Xbox and try again, please.

Clean your console's MAC and restart your internet devices.

Network Settings> Advanced Settings> MAC Address and Clear.

Hi there David welcome to the community forum! Christopher here, an Xbox fan just like you and has been on Xbox for years already. I would really love to make your day by helping you out. Try the following! https://help.minecraft.net/hc/en-us/articles/36... yes, it says child account but you can follow the same steps woth an adult account.

Hi there! My name is Darhyl and I’d be more than happy to help you with your query.

I'm sorry you are experiencing this with your Minecraft multiplayer error.

I understand that you have already managed your Xbox privacy settings. In this case, kindly try to re-add your account but this time as a "Family Member" under a Microsoft family with an adult account as an "Organizer"

Note: Make sure that your account is added as a Family Member to make this work. Also, a child account is registered on the birthdate 21 years old and below upon the account's first creation while an adult account is registered on the birthdate 22 years old and older. Even if you change the birthdate, the system will still follow the original birthdate registered upon the account's creation.

Then try to proceed to manage your child account's privacy settings again exactly like this using your adult account according to the official Xbox website: https://support.xbox.com/en-US/help...ttings by selecting View details & customize.

"Sign in to your adult Microsoft account at Xbox.com.

Select your Gamertag, and then select the More actions button (…).

Select Xbox settings, and then select Privacy & Online Safety.

Note: Because you’re accessing sensitive info, you may have to enter your password or PIN.

Select the gamertag for the child/main account that you want to manage.

Select all the Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One, and Windows 10 devices Online Safety tab or the Privacy tab.

Review the current settings and update all of the options as "Allow" and "Everyone", and then select Submit to save the changes.

Note: You must select Submit at the bottom of the page before leaving or switching to another tab. If you don't submit the changes before you move to the other tab, your changes won't be saved."

Then check if you will be able to play Minecraft multiplayer on your account.

If the issue persists, you will need to reach out to Mojang Support for further assistance as they have the tools and resources to properly investigate this:
