Yes it can if people doesn't force the use of certain codecs.
It will in that case communicate with the G.711 codec. It is a good quality
codec, but it needs a lot of bandwidth. That's why installing the GSM
codec for Netmeeting improves things. But there is no secret, GnomeMeeting or
OpenH323 people can't have so good codecs as Netmeeting because most of
them are patented.
