also depends on the speed. just because both of you have cable doesnt say you'll get a perfect game. And have you tried with that same person on an xbox online game? and who hosted the game?

Thing is, Many Cable connects, be it that they are very fast downloads. some only have 128k upload. infact i hear thats the case with many lately.

my friend finally got a cable connection yesterday. i talked him into buying NHL 2003 ............... so later after i went home, i had him host a game and i connected and we played some. at times it was extremly laggy. and after thinking about it a while i found its because he only has 128k upload.................. i have 384upload, so tonight we're gunna try me hosting the game and seeing if its better.

point being. that even if everyone has broadband, some are slower at certain things. upload is important when hosting a game.
