Grounded hosting a multiplayer game error

[hub14up]

Pleas Help! i am trying to host a game in ground and get this error every time i try to host, i just got the PC Game pass and i downloaded the game through it, i tried multiple things but i just can't seem to host the game without a VPN, the only thing i haven't tried is port forwarding, and when i use a VPN the game gets really laggy for me and my friend, it always says "High ping" with the red marker, to the point where is unplayable, pleas i need a way to play the game multiplayer without a VPN, i have always played a lot of different online games without any connection issue, i live in Egypt if that's relevant, thank you for your time.
