A friend and I were very happy to try playing this in Online Co-Op, bought it on a Sale and got pretty angry for 2H trying to make it work.
The Online Co-Op is like a lottery, either you both have the one Network/Router Configuration the game is fine with or Online Multiplayer is not going to work for you.
Tips from the DEVs are things like:
- trying using a VPN so you have a static IP4 Address (oh sorry I don't want to buy some decent VPN Service just so I can play the game, are srsly? )
- Port-forward all 10.000 ports between 20.00 - 30.000 (wow ... just saying normal router only allow 255 ports per Setup, meaning I'd have todo that for ~40 times and make whole network vulnerable)
- Call your Internet Provider to help ...
.... I don't know, when you this problem is very common and as DEV you start giving "tips" like that as a "common" solution, don't you ask yourself if your online-feature may need a rework?

I had the same issue connecting to a friend with match codes, due to CGNAT on my end. We got around this by both of us being at the same location in the game. My friend then created a blue invite hand symbol on a wall using "Place invite" through the online menu. Seconds later it appeared in my game and I was able to connect without any port forwarding, calling my internet provider or other crazy workarounds.
