Windows [HELP] Multiplayer Constant Disconnects

[Amethysko]

Friend and I have a farm together, she typically hosts. She has the game on Steam, I'm running through the PC Xbox app.

After a couple hours of playing, I will consistently disconnect from the game and have to reconnect, usually once a day. I've tried googling the problem extensively, but for the most part I've only come up with 2 year-old threads full of people mentioning they're having the same issue with no real fixes in sight.

We've disabled antivirus and firewall, tried restarting both our games, our computers, and our internet. I tried hosting a game instead to see if it changed anything, and she started disconnecting every few minutes. We're at our wits end, here.

Unfortunately I have no recourse, but just hope to pump the numbers on this post a bit. We have been experiencing the same on macOS since December of 2021. Constant and persistent disconnects. We are now at the point where we cannot go a full in-game day without at least one disconnect.
Strangely, while on vacation on a different ISP prior to returning to our home using base ISP the issue was non-existent. I cannot recall what the ISP was on vacation, but our home is Google Fiber. There is at least one other post referencing Google mesh wireless routers being an issue, but this does not apply to us.

Ok, one item to potentially check for consistent disconnects.
If either party has Bluetooth capability on your laptops/desktops then turn off the Bluetooth radio on BOTH devices.

Other places in the forums and elsewhere online mention Bluetooth speakers/headphones interfering with the connection.

My Bluetooth radio was on, but not connected to anything. Most other reports of that variety indicate the Bluetooth radio being in use, but gave turning off the onboard Bluetooth radio a shot. Knock on a forest of friggin wood, it has worked since.

I'm having this same problem with my multiplayer game. The game will randomly just crash to desktop with no errors/warnings or logs available. Playing on fresh installs on three computers that are all in the same room and 2 of the comps consistently get these crashes while the third does not. It normally happens every few in-game days but doesn't seem to be related to any specific event or activity in game. I haven't played as much single player but the crashes don't seem to occur outside of Co-Op.

We've tried connecting via IP and via the code. I've tried forwarding all the ports on the router, disabling PnP, disabling all antivirus/firewalls on each computer, repairing and reinstalling. Updated drivers, installed all Windows Updates as well. After each step the crashes persisted. I installed SMAPI to see if the extra log reporting would give anything but it does not. To StatPat's comment above, there is no Bluetooth adapter or device connected to any of the computers.

We just found this game and it's great to play together with my kids but the constant crashes are making it unplayable :(

Playing on the Xbox Game Pass version of the game.

Looking to find an issue to the same issue.

Since 1.5 launched multiplayer has been full of connection issues. And now has gotten to the point of disconnects 1-5 times per in game day. It happens more frequently for LAN players, but occasionally will happen to internet players.

I've read this same issue all over the internet, and they seem to be ignored with no responses and more importantly, no fixes. Can we expect a solution at some point?
