It is possible you are registering in the ILS with an unreachable IP
address -- there are a number of scenarios that could cause this --

Meeting by Wire (http://www.meetingbywire.com)
At work i have a similar problem with the corporate LAN connection to the
Internet. When I call someone on the T1 line, they can answer plus hear my
audio and see my video. But i cannot get audio or video from them NOR can
they call me. They also complain that there are two entries with my name on
the current call screen once the connection is made. We can however do
successful file transfers, chat and whiteboard. If I use a DUN on the same
computer, i get the audio and video from the other party. But they still
can't call me. I am under the belief that most of these problems are because
i am behind a firewall with a proxy server. I gave my network administrator
a port assignment chartr out of the Official Netmeeting Book. I bring up
this issue because it affects everyone under corporate control. I don't want
the corporate people to think that Netmeeting is a threat.
Again, thank you for taking the time to reply....

Again, your help was greatly appreciated on this end....

I use SyGate to share cable modem access between two Windows 98 boxes and
one Windows 95 box. SyGate is advertised to work with NetMeeting, but, the
only thing I have NOT been able to use successfully, is NetMeeting from a
Windows 98 box on the inner private LAN. Like most NetMeeting users behind a
firewall or proxy server, I can send audio/video just fine, I just can not
receive audio/video from the remote party. NetMeeting running on the same
box as the SyGate server works fine, as expected, because it has a real IP
address viewable by the internet versus the private IP addresses inside on
my private LAN.
Still tweaking the SyGate applrule.cfg file when I get time....Maybe one
day...:-)

Again, thank you for your response.

You will be able to use NetMeeting from the machine acting as the SyGate
server, i.e.. the one connected to the dial modem. You probably will NOT be
able to use NetMeeting, at least for audio/video conferencing, from any box
on the inner LAN. You will be able to send audio/video, but not receive. The
classic behind the firewall/proxy server symptom. SyGate advertises that it
is compatible with NetMeeting, but I have never been able to get it to work.
I have not tried applications sharing or whiteboard from an inner box, since
my major use is for Grandma seeing the Grandkids kind of thing...:-)
Good luck...SyGate is a nice package, easy to setup, it just does not
deliver, at least for me, the promised compatibility with NetMeeting from
the inner network. It does fine with surfing the internet, ICQ, email, etc.
from the inner network.

Try wingate it will work and its free for 2 users.
It also has much better support to do what you want.
Go to the help desk and it will show you how before you
download or install. I'm not with wingate I just got tired of sygate
and the lack of controls plus support.
www.wingate.com
Your saying you can do full blown NetMeetings from a computer on your inner
private LAN, using an address in the 192.168.0.X range, through the Wingate
proxy box to a remote user? You can receive audio/video from the remote
user? You can share apps and collaborate with the remote user? Inquiring
minds want to know.
Thanks...

My list at http://www.netmeet.net/green.htm is larger and has servers on it
that are good and checked by hand.
We're working on automatic scanning software to check the servers but we
have found that so far we don't really need it.
Anyway, I have more than 1000 visitors a day to my lists and I find that I
hear about any server that's down within a few minutes. My list is also more
complete because it was first and has the most traffic (by far).
