hello Allan,

You have told this :
" I have finally determined that the problem I'm having is that both of
the systems I am trying to communicate with are running on home networks
and of course the H323 protocol demands a direct connection.
Unfortunately the documentation makes no mention of this problem."

Then you are telling me this :
"as well as it used to.  I don't have a router but a direct connection
to the internet.  The NAT test tells me I have nothing to do but pass on
to the next screen.  How does GM help me penetrate the NAT in front of
their machine?"

I'm thus confused and I do not understand anymore your setup, or your problem 
at all.
