Reserving bandwidth would normally be a smaller part of the problem
with Netmeeting, but in your case, you've got plenty of bandwidth.

Latency is a larger issue, and while you can use 'tc' to define QoS
and try to control latency outbound from your link, you have no
control over what happens once the Netmeeting packets hit the
Internet, especially when they hit the cable network, which might more
than likely be where most of the latency gets picked up.
