I'm back, I peformed port scan to verify that both Windows 2000 and Windows 98 are on my local LAN are able to communicate though the known ports and it turns out to be fine also I did the port scan across the internet to my laptop with cell phone and it has passed the test.
I do not know why Netmeeting wouldn't send out video/audio both within LAN and outside of LAN. it is a odd problem.
