I have also experienced this bug on Android with version 1.17.41.

I'm having almost the same issue. Native Windows 10 install, BDS 1.16.201.2. I can connect if I'm on my LAN, but trying to connect externally with my public IP fails - with one exception that I discovered earlier today: I have SurfShark VPN installed on my phone and, I have no idea why, but I can connect to my server using the external IP as long as I am connected through my VPN. I was almost out of ideas before I stumbled across the VPN. Unfortunately, this is not an acceptable workaround, as not all of my players pay for a VPN service, and I'm not entirely sure why this works at all, unless some part of the traffic is being blocked by my ISP (Verizon at home and Cricket on my phone). I confirmed that the use of a VPN does enable connections by installing SurfShark on my wife's phone and then attempting to connect from her Android device through the VPN to the public IP of the Windows 10 PC running the server.

I also checked to verify that port forwarding is configured correctly on my router for both Minecraft and XBox Live services. I can also get basic server info from bedrockinfo.com.
