Cannot host a "Multiplayer Game" on Cellular Data

I am unable to host a Multiplayer Game on Minecraft iOS while on Data. I have Use Cellular Data enabled in settings. When I open my world making sure that Multiplayer Game is on, my friends are not able to join. If I go into the settings without leaving the world and then go into multiplayer, the Multiplayer Game toggle is off and can't be turned on. I am able to join normal Minecraft Servers like Mineplex just fine.

Steps:

  1. Disable WiFi and go onto Cellular Data

  2. Go into Minecraft

  3. Ensure that Use Cellular Data is on in the settings

  4. Load up the world ensuring that Multiplayer Game is toggled on

  5. Load the world. At this point, my friends do not see my world in the Friends category and inviting them does nothing.

  6. Go into pause, settings, then multiplayer. Multiplayer game will be off.

 

Edit: Still occurs on the newest update 1.11.1

Still happening

Still happening now 1.16 beta

I can’t even join SERVERS when on cellular data either😞

migrated

This is sad, I purchase this game to play with friends a few days ago. I have this problem on Android. Wish they would recognize this problem and find a solution.

migrated

How long does it take to find a fix? Been having this problem for the last recent updates..

migrated

It's also happening on Android

 

migrated

I think it is because Minecraft disconnects form your Microsoft account on cellular data. 

migrated

This is kind of expected. Since you're not using your router, Minecraft can't host your world on a port or anything like that. This issue is not Minecraft's wrong doing...

migrated

The same thing happens to me. I enable multiplayer when I create a new world, joining the world but then it’s turned off. And yes, the “Use Cellular Data” setting is enabled. 

migrated

I'm use cellar data and load world and i want to invite my friend no invite button and i'm cek multiplayer is off

I play on PC with a 4G/LTE stick and I also have this problem...

it also happens when I try to connect to my own realm

Minecraft is the only game I play what cares about cellular data, plus I don't know how it is aware of the type of connection I use...

Never had any problems until 1.16.100

When I updated the game at least version I'm unable to play multiplayer servers using my cellular data even if I putted it on in game settings. I got a server that I pay monthly and I can't access to it anymore. Resolve this bug as soon as possible, it makes the game unplayable!

Pls help me I have this same problem I did everything and still it doesn't work latest version 1.16.100 android

The setting to use the cellular data is simply missing on Windows 10

migrated

I’ve always played in my realm while away from WiFi. Suddenly this update applies and I now get the error that I cannot play with friends without WiFi. I don’t wanna play with friends. I want to edit my realm. 

My settings are all set to use Cellular Data. There’s nothing I haven’t tried. And I’m pretty disappointed.  ☹️ 

migrated

I used to be able to play on cellular data, so this isn’t a “port” issue. This is Minecraft’s issue. If it worked at one point, then it’s their problem. Also it’s annoying that they haven’t done A THING except combine tickets a year later. They at less should have said something.

 

 

also this site is wicked buggy

MCPE-55405 for message "You must be connected to wifi to play with your friends" when attempting to connect to an external server but connected to cellular data / LTE.  MCPE-55405 is marked as resolved, but it is not.  MCPE-55405 refers to this ticket, and some of the previous comments in this ticket seem to be more related to MCPE-55405.

Cant connect to external internet server when on cell data on windows 10 edition latest (1.16.201). marketplace and other in-game internet connections work fine.

I'm trying to play with a friend over cellular data whenever I'm not around wifi. We are both signed into our Microsoft accounts, set our settings to cellular data enable in the settings.

Before starting the world, my world settings is set to multiplayer so it's on, but when use cellular and I go into my world and go to multiplayer settings it is turned off and grayed out so I can't change it. 

I pause the game and have no invite option under my name when I use cellular. When I'm using wifi I have the option to invite people. My iOS settings are enabled that I can use cellular and so are theirs.

They always play on cellular data and it ONLY lets them join my world when I'm connected to wifi. Never with cellular..I makes no sense sense there's a setting to USE cellular data instead of wifi😞

Last week I was able to play with my cellular data and invite them with no issues. I was able to see the invite button under my name when I was not using wifi.

Im on iOS and so are they with the latest software update and with the latest game update..

I don't know why it's not working anymore😞 is there anyone that can help us out? Much appreciated.

Partially fixed in 1.17.0.52 - the game still switches off the multiplayer toggle when loading a world

migrated

It also happen in Minecraft Android. I play minecraft v1.16.221 hotfix but it is not fixed. I know it is fixed Minceraft bedrock beta v1.17.0.52 and later. It's ok but what about Minecraft current non-beta version. It also needs to be repaired. Because of this problem, I have to download minecraft bedrock beta for Android and asked my friend to join beta. After this bug is fixed, I will leave beta and ask my friend to leave beta as it lags too much but I and my friend will join it when we want to use minecraft beta features.
