Research direction
Start by reproducing both hosting and connecting to a netplay game in RetroArch 1.15.0 on a Wii U with the reported CFW, recording the DSI error details. Narrow down whether the crash is specific to hosting, connecting, or both; done means the cause is identified and the Wii U no longer crashes in the affected flow.
