Netmeeting Not Working |
|
|
Ever since xp sp2 upgrade netmeeting has NOT worked. Am using Windows XP
home, I have disable the Qos packet scheduler, am using microsofts
firewall and have tried disabling it also. Have opened ports in firewall
also but still nothing.
I use a cable modem. I can place a call but never get any video or audio
since the upgrade. Any help would be appreciated! |

The outgoing calls are normal? -- Audio/video in and out?
How are you expecting to get calls -- via an ILS server? Are you possibly
behind a NAT of some kind? Is your IP (as shown in the help about of
NetMeeting) from the private set - 192.168.x.x, 10.x.x.x, 172.16-31.x.x ?
The know changes with SP2 are QoS Packet Scheduler problems ( but that
affects outgoing audio/video) and a firewall issue with NetMeeting in RDS
mode -- normal calls are not affected (assuming NetMeeting has been allowed
exception status).

Sorry rereading your post -- you already seem to have indicated no
audio/video either way ( is that true?)

Both incoming & outgoing calls are the same, no audio or video. Expecting
to get calls from ILS server. As far as I know I'm NOT behind what ever a
NAT is. My IP address is not from the private set. I have netmeeting set
as an exception in MSFT firewall.
When I either place a call or a call comes in, netmeeting says it's
connected but no audio or video. |

If you actually receive calls via the ILS then the firewall is unlikely the
issue nor are you behind a NAT.
Is it possible that there is something at your end forcing data only calls
?( accept/make secure calls only would do that, as would some other program
running using the H.323 audio/video ports, or a group policy setting
specifying data only)

I think you're right about another program using the port......When I
opened netmeeting everything was fine BUT when I displayed the ILS
directory I noticed in the lower right corner of my computer screen where
it shows my ethernet connection and anti-virus icon, that the "windows
messenger" icon shows up with an x in it like I'm not signed in. I don't
use windows messenger. |

Netmeeting will start up Messenger if you view the "Microsoft Internet
Directory" so I am guessing what you see is unrelated to your problem.
What else is running on the computer?

I was thinking other audio/video calling programs or servers that might be
using tcp 1720 - H.323 port.

My computer has 3 profiles for me and 2 other people. Only 1 person uses
the computer at a time. No other programs are running in the other 2
profiles and no other programs are running in mine. Not sure what a server
is. In one of the other profiles they have 3 instant messengers, AOL, Yahoo
and Windows but are not running when I use the computer. |

None of that should make any difference to NetMeeting so I am guessing
another program using the H.323 ports is *not* your problem.

Is there anything else to check or is it a waste of time to try and use
netmeeting for anything more than just to chat with? |

Well there probably is something else -- as your symptom is not the common
experience -- but I can't think of what.
I don't know what is preventing your use of audio/video features.
