DMZ doesn't seem to be working for Netmeeting

Archived from groups: microsoft.public.broadbandnet.hardware (More info?)

After trying almost everything with port forwarding. I
tried using the DMZ to use Netmeeting but I get the same
problem: I can send Audio and Video but cannot receive
any.

Any help with this?

This is simply not true -- use of the dmz will allow two way audio/video in
NetMeeting calls.

If the dmz is correctly configured and port forwarding of NetMeeting related
ports is turned off you should get two way audio/video in NetMeeting calls.
A local firewall should be installed on the dmz machine ( and may require
configuring for NetMeeting use).
