I’m having same problem, I tried it a few months ago and it worked both lan and vpn, now it only works on lan, I tried hamachi and wireguard, with wireguard i can even access other devices in my home but unreal still doesent see recognize my device on vpn.
any thoughts how to solve that?

In my case, I was able to get it to work by explicitly specifying the IP address of the server when VPN.
Here are the steps to follow in UE5.
Everyone should do the following.

  1. Go to Project Settings > Plugins > Multi-User Editing
    Enter any number between 1024 and 49151 for Server Port. (I entered 7000)
  2. Go to Project Settings > Plugins > UDP Messaging
    Press the “+” to the right of Static Endpoints and enter “IP address in VPN of server:Numbers entered in step 1” (e.g., 192.168.30.10:7000) in the Index[0] entry field.
    (“Server” refers to the computer who presses “Launch Server” on the Multi-User Browser to become the server).

By setting up in this way, Multi-User Editing could be done.
