Friend getting disconnected consistantly (fixed)

Ok, so here’s the situation. Yesterday, I gifted a friend of mine the MCC, and we played some custom MP & Winter Contingency. We decided to hop on today, try playing some more of the campaign, and invited him to the fireteam. Right after it started loading ONI Sword Base, he got returned to the menu, so we kept trying, as well as on multiplayer, and the problem persists. I looked for a forum describing a similar issue, I don’t know if it’s a player side issue, or if it’s the game. I did buy mine off of the Microsoft store, however, so I believe it may be a part of it, but again, I have played with multiple steam users. We both have wired connections.
