I and one of my colleagues want to communicate on Netmeeting and both
of us are the Internet.

I am not clear how to get the IP address when we are on the internet
through a ISP.

Thanks

Assuming there are no routers between the internet connection and the
proposed NetMeeting computer, using help=>about in NetMeeting will provide
the callable IP address. The Ip address can be communicated using email,
instant messenger or whatever other means are available.

I guess the ISPs have routers and firewalls

They might have routers (probably not firewalls) -- but I was referring to
local devices.

How do the computers connect to the internet (dial up, dsl, cable or ..)?

this was where I was
wondering how do we resolve this scenario and still connect on
Netmeeting.


If there a no local router/gateway devices then determining the IP address
via help ->about, communicating the IP address to the caller, then placing
the call using the IP address of the callee should work.
