Lag with friend on netplay

[Timheid]

When my friend and i connect on netplay our ping is jumpy. itll go from 30-120 constantly. we live close by and both of our computer can handle dolphin. Also if either of us connects with someone else the pings are stable. We even have the same isp. anybody have any clue why this happens?

I'd watch your ping + buffer, why not get a screenshot of what's going on so I can get a better look at things?

the ping between me and him is around 30 and we set it to 5 whenever we play cause the ping spikes up to 100 for a second and then back down to 30. but what would you like a screenshot of?
