I cannot get Netmeeting running on a stock Dell Optiplex
GX270 and WinXP to send audio and video across the
Internet. Everything works fine on a LAN (audio & video
in both directions). When on the Internet, the Dell
receives audio and video but the other end cannot receive
the Dell's audio and video. This has been tried with
several computers (both different Dell's and different on
the other end) with the same results. Internet firewall
is off. We have had the Dell's in a DMZ and connected
directly to the cable modem w/o any firewall (All of this
testing has been done via cable broadband connections).
Any thoughts?

Are you sure the problem is at your end ?

There are two situations that I can think of that would have similar
symptoms:

1) the other end is behind a NAT device of some type ( firewall, router)
2) the "QoS Packet Scheduler" enabled in your NIC is causing you not to send
audio/video -- I am not sure if this would still allow local audio/video
transmission

To eliminate 2) disable the "QoS Packet Scheduler" in your NIC setup and
retry.

Thanks Brian! It was the QoS Packet Scheduler. I had seen
that a long time ago in this newsgroup, but it had
completely slipped my mind. Thanks again.
