Can't play along with my husband

You have to separate accounts. One husband, one wife. If only one has gamepass ultimate or gold.
Then you have to set account with gold as xbox home. Now you can play on this console with any account that doesn’t have gold, without gold account being sign in. Gold account can now sign in the second console and happy playing.

Great answer. My wife and I have been playing since beginning but started with separate ps+ accounts. Not tech savvy. @Bambere

@DSNikki check out the information from our friend.

Bambere:

We do have separate accounts, each with game pass ultimate. Each account is over a decade old, so that is unlikely our issue.

Just trying to help.

Only one account can be signed in console at the time you want to play. Otherwise when you want to play on second console, it will pop up massage, that you already playing on the fist console.

I got 4 xbox in same household all are connected via wifi with 2 accounts having ultimate, they all can play conan at the same time.

You should definitely be able to play together at the same time. Hopefully you find the solution

Good luck

I agree, it’s been frustrating because we can’t figure out why it isn’t working when it should and we have been able to play at the same time on two separate servers, it just won’t let us be on the same one at the same time.

Bambere · 2023-04-21T00:59:13.548Z

Check that server settings.
It might have ticked off allowing family shared accounts.

DSNikki · 2023-04-21T15:45:14.306Z

Yep, we checked that after someone suggested it above and it is, in fact, enabled.

DSNikki · 2023-04-25T03:02:26.923Z

So, I am able to connect to the server just fine. I spent a couple hours in it earlier today with our friend/host. After making dinner, my husband hops into the server before I get back online and he gets in without issue. I try to join the server from a completely different Xbox account on a completely separate Xbox in the bedroom [the one I was playing on the server from earlier this afternoon] and it spends a solid five minutes in a loading screen before telling me I need an online connection to play, despite the fact that I am actively chatting with my other friends playing on the server in an Xbox live party chat.

Bambere · 2023-04-25T05:09:37.480Z

Ask your host, if I can try to connect to their server.
I will try to see, if I can connect to it with two xboxes from same houshold.

DSNikki · 2023-04-25T13:11:28.226Z

I will get the information from him after I get off work today. I can’t remember the password but the server is Farfignewton.

DSNikki · 2023-04-26T15:12:32.000Z

DM’d you! Host is fine to have you try to join but asked me not to post the password publicly.

Can someone like sum up or simplify all this? Because this kind of thing happens in Diablo and I haven’t figured out why yet neither has the people I played with. Certain people can connect and certain people can’t and I don’t know. I know Diablo is a different game and stuff but same rule of thumb right same stuff happens maybe same answer.

DSNikki · 2023-04-26T21:03:29.467Z

So far, from what I can surmise, it’s looking like it might be less of a game issue and more of a service provider issue.

To be fair, our internet situation is less than ideal at the moment and we are hoping to swap providers here in the next couple months because we have had connection issues in general with our current service. I already had a hunch it may be related to this but wanted to exhaust the other possible avenues because this seemed to be a problem in this game for more than just me and I thought maybe other solutions could solve our issues.

LootGoblin · 2023-04-26T21:16:58.856Z

Oh okay. My buddy uses Patriot mobile well at least for his cell phone and Itheyve been pretty good with him considering they are a very small company with very limited resources. At least they keep their integrity and not like AT&t and all the other places. I use Patriot mobile too. All the others get into non-necessary business garbage anti-god anti-American garbage that we don’t want any part of which shows they have bad business integrity as well. That’s like us Americans going over there in China and trying to make an anti-china business. Yes I know they do it here but doesn’t mean that we should do the same. Anyway you get the point but thank you. He has his people take care of a bunch of the minor stuff so he’ll have to explain to me what I need to do on my end. But hey thank you I appreciate it

DSNikki · 2023-04-27T13:36:42.237Z

Alright, it appears it’s DEFINITELY something to do with our internet and not an issue with two consoles in the same household - and thanks Bambere for checking that out for us. We will be looking to see if we can change providers ASAP in order to take advantage of our friend’s server rental.

ConanBoDk · 2023-04-27T21:38:58.067Z

I am no network expert and also on Playstation.
But that sounds for me that it could be a nat issue. It depends on how your local and/or provider network works.

On Xbox you should have somewhere an option for nat type in your network settings too. Maybe a different setting could solve your problem here. But don’t ask me which one I would need to research the different types to explain them. Just play around with the different types on both consoles

DSNikki · 2023-04-28T19:05:54.986Z

Yeah, we can’t adjust our NAT to open with the service we have and the number of devices connected in our house. We have definitely tried. I think that’s probably our biggest issue and why we are already looking at new internet providers
