Connecting using an IP address:

To have a direct connection with another user, you must first obtain an IP
address. IP addresses for most dial-up connections will change every time
you log on to the Internet. For this reason, you must get the IP address from
the person you are trying to contact each time. You can also determine your
IP address and then send it to the other person who will use Microsoft
NetMeeting to call you.

To obtain your IP address, first connect to your Internet Service Provider.
Then use either Method A or B to determine your IP address.

Method A:

Start Microsoft NetMeeting and then click on Help->About Windows
NetMeeting. You can see your IP address here (as shown below).
