If you have a fixed IP address, then you should configure NetMeeting to
use DUAL Talk as its gateway:
- Make sure the IP address you use has been added to your DUAL Talk
account. If you did not add this address while setting up your account, then add
this IP address at the Access Methods area of My DUAL Talk; the online account management system.
- Select Tools | Options from the main menu. Press the Advanced Calling
button, and you will see this box:
NetMeeting configuration
- Make sure that there is no check against Use a gatekeeper to place calls.
Place a check against Use a gateway to call telephones... and in the edit box,
enter the DUAL Talk gateway address gw1.dualtalk.com. Click OK
twice to return to NetMeeting.
- After you have finished, any calls to IP addresses will still be routed directly their
destinations and any calls to telephone numbers will be sent to DUAL Talk.
- Dial 123 to make a test call.

If your IP address changes regularly, then you should configure
NetMeeting to use DUAL Talk as its gatekeeper:
- Make sure that your DUAL Talk account has been configured for dynamic IP
addresses. If you did not do this while setting up your account, then set this
option now at the Access Methods area of My DUAL Talk; the online account management system.
Select Tools | Options from the main menu. Press the Advanced
Calling button, and you will see this box:
NetMeeting configuration
- Make sure that there is no check against Use a gateway to call
telephones... Place a check against Use a gatekeeper to
call telephones... and in the Gatekeeper edit box, enter the DUAL Talk
gatekeeper address gk1.dualtalk.com.
- Click on Log on using my Phone number and enter your
authentication number in the Phone number box. This number should
be 1822 followed by your DUAL Talk account number followed by your DUAL Talk password
(emailed to you when you set up your account). For example, if your account number
is 200100 and your password is 900100, set the E164 alias to be 1822200100900100.
- Click OK twice to return to NetMeeting.
- After you have finished, any calls to IP addresses will still be routed directly their
destinations and any calls to telephone numbers will be sent to DUAL Talk.
