Frequently Asked Questions
How do I use NetMeeting with my D-Link Router?
Unlike most TCP/IP applications, NetMeeting uses
DYNAMIC PORTS
instead of STATIC PORTS.
That means that each NetMeeting connection is somewhat different than the last. For instance, the
HTTP web site application uses port 80. NetMeeting can use any of over 60,000 different ports.
All broadband routers using (only) standard NAT and all internet sharing programs like Microsoft
ICS that use (only) standard NAT will NOT work with NetMeeting or other H.323 software
packages.
The solution is to put the router in DMZ.
Note:
A few hardware manufacturers have taken it on themselves to actually provide H.323
compatibility. This is not an easy task since the router must search each incoming packet for signs
that it might be a netmeeting packet. This is a whole lot more work than a router normally does and
may actually be a
weak point in the firewall
. D-Link is not one of the manufacturers.

Frequently Asked Questions
How do I send or receive a file via iChat when the Mac OSX firewall is active? -for
Macintosh users- Mac OS X 10.2 and later
“iChat cannot send or receive a file when the Mac OS X firewall is active in its default state. If you have
opened the AIM port, you may be able to receive a file but not send them.
In its default state, the Mac OS X firewall blocks file transfers using iChat or America Online AIM
software. If either the sender or receiver has turned on the Mac OS X firewall, the transfer may be
blocked.
The simplest workaround is to temporarily turn off the firewall in the Sharing preference pane on both
computers. This is required for the sender. However, the receiver may keep the firewall on if the AIM
port is open. To open the AIM port:
If you do not want to turn off the firewall at the sending computer, a different file sharing service may
be used instead of iChat. The types of file sharing available in Mac OS X are outlined in technical
document 106461, “Mac OS X: File Sharing” in the
AppleCare Knowledge base
online.
Note: If you use a file sharing service when the firewall is turned on, be sure to click the Firewall tab
and select the service you have chosen in the “Allow” list. If you do not do this, the firewall will also
block the file sharing service. “
The following information is from the online Macintosh AppleCare knowledge base:
Step 1
Choose Apple menu > System Preferences.
Step 2
Choose View > Sharing.
Step 3
Click the Firewall tab.
Step 4
Click New.
Step 5
Choose AOL IM from the Port Name pop-up menu. The number 5190 should
already be filled in for you.
Step 6
Click OK.
