Hosting Games for Remote Learning
Hello all!
I've been working on getting MC:EE up and running in my school over the last month or so. For the students who are on site we've been relatively successful in getting moving so that they can all be in the hosted world.
For my students who are distanced learning due to COVID concerns, we've had less success. While trying to sort things out today, a few of my students decided to host their own games and were able to get into one another's worlds, but not mine hosted from the school. Nor could I join their worlds.
I've been though the IT Admin guide repeatedly, and my IT person insists that everything has been forwarded or whitelisted that needs to be. I don't have access to the firewall myself or I'd double check things, but clearly something is still not right somewhere though.
What could we still be doing wrong? Any and all help greatly appreciated. Many Thanks in advance.

Hi Adam,
Thanks for posting. My initial guess would be that port forwarding is not setup for 19132 on the host network or there is some sort of filter/firewall restriction preventing connection. I would also suggest trying to connect using the IP address and see if that helps.
Thanks!

Following this thread as I am having the same issue. All my kids distance learning who live closer and have faster internet speeds can get in either using a join code or the IP address. I have two that live in the foothills and use Digital Path internet and they can never join the game or cannot have others join them. However, they can join each other's worlds they're brothers in the same house. It's been frustrating, any help would be appreciated.

Following as well. We are full virtual right now and the inability to host a game over the Internet is preventing us from using Minecraft.
