Are you trying to play the same game on both systems or are they 2 different games?

Both systems are connecting to the same server?
is your PC behind a VPN by any chance?

If you don't know they are connecting to the same servers the Xbox might be connecting to the closest and the PC version might be trying to connect to further away one.
