Hi
I finally had a chance to try it, and still no go. Now all possible ports are
open on my GM and the NM has a router with DMZ support toward the NM, so it
has open air. Calls innitiated from NM to GM comes through and Audio travels
back and forth. Calls innitiated from GM to NM are rejected. GM shows "User
did not accept the call". ANy other hints? ALso when I call from NM to GM,
everything is fine, audio, but video does not go through from the GM side to
the NM side. NM has no camera, so I couldnt try that. THanks.
