Hello I am new to using Dolphin and I need help with Netplay. My friend and I followed the netplay guide exactly. Me and him share the exact same settings.

And I forwarded my port using my IPv4 address and such.

Did you make sure both of you are using the same build? Make sure you both have HLE on.

That's not an IP Address, that's a network address. Go to whatsmyip.org or ask google or something about how to get the actual address. That should fix everything.

No no, I meant for connecting on Dolphin. Your Network IP is what you want to use to port forward on a router. but when connecting to someone over the internet, you need to get their visible IP so that the router redirects you to their computer. Am I clear now in what I'm saying? Your computer's network address, and the internet address is different.
