    OK -- that was not obvious or I missed the information -- so presumably you
    are calling using the IP address as the calling address? I can't think of
    any reason why there would be a delay in connection. Pinging the other party
    works without problem?

    The IPs are configured manually -- both on the same subnet?

    The issue is the use of the QoS Packet Scheduler in the *NIC* configuration
    not the services panel.

    "Exchanging" video doesn't provide adequate infomormation to determine what
    is going on. Messenger has two mechanisims for video transfer -- the
    "Webcam" feature which has NAT traversal strategies and remote server
    support that makes UPnP NAT traversal function in the router not necessary
    and the video ( and audio) calling feature which needs UPnP NAT traversal
    support at the router. This is regardless of the fact that the computers in
    question are on the same LAN.

    I don't see where using the DMZ feature helps with audio/video on Messenger
    on Win98 ( unless there is some new audio mechanism in 6.2 that I am not
    aware of).

    This is a cross over cable? That is what would be required to connect
    directly with no hub or router. Normally in that situation the IP addresses
    would be 169.254.x.x addreses unless you have specifically configured static
    addresses. Perhaps you have not configured the NIC correctly?

    I guess you are confusing me -- you have some sort of separate connection
    and NIC to get to the web?
