FWIW with NetMeeting, Iphone5, ICQ file transfers, these can sometimes
work if you do the calling and sending the other way round forget it.

I am told it is to do with the dynamic IP and the internal firewall
within the M10.

Personally I think it is a deliberate ploy by Telecom/xtra to make you
use the plain old phone, bringing in extra revenue. It bugs me as I can
no longer use NetMeeting/sharing/collaborating to jointly take part in
joint student projects/learning and to compulsorily bar Internet users
from using this type of Internet usage, for the sake of extra revenue,
by installing adsl modems that leave you unable to use the Internet for
anything but basic surfing at the cost they are charging is totally
unacceptable.
