Poor Quality for Analog Modem Users
Unfortunately, as with the standard CU-SeeMe client (which is still available from Cornell University), CUseeMe is a luxury that many dial-up connectors will have to pass up -- attempting to connect at any rate less than 56.6 Kbps will get you nowhere fast, or even slow -- in fact, only audio telephony (no video) is recommended for users with 28.8 Kbps and lower connections.
While the current reality for many users is less than amazing, for those with fast Internet connections -- or for those using CU-SeeMe only on a LAN intranet connection -- CUseeMe definitely delivers when it comes to high-quality color videoconferencing. And when used with a color video camera, CUseeMe will allow you to send your own video feeds over the 'net inexpensively and efficiently.
