After further investigation by minecraft support did thinked it was a nintendo related issue, but at the moment can set as awaiting reply, and if minecraft support cannot fix will be replying back as soon
I want to add some updated information:
The bug happens every time I boot up Minecraft and also sometimes while playing in a Minecraft world. It is not related to the servers section. The error appear only during normal gameplay too.
The issue is still random and there is no specific pattern, but it happens very frequently when starting the game and also while playing.
My internet connection is stable and all other online services on Nintendo Switch work normally. This problem only happens in Minecraft.
I already tried:
Restarting Nintendo Switch OLED
Restarting router
Reinstalling Minecraft
Setting DNS back to Automatic
Removing Bedrock Connect completely
Contacting Nintendo Support (would redirect to contact my wifi support)
Contacting Minecraft Support (ticket #7939733)
Minecraft Support already told me they have no more troubleshooting steps and suggested reporting this on the Bug Tracker.
