I have few friends that got OjO and called me, and I did call them too. Works like charm. The only thing that sucks is video quality.
Please remember there are two IP addresses involved, one we called private address, for example 192.168.0.125, 192.168.1.125 will not work at all. What you need is public IP address to call your friends.
The Public IP address and Private ip address, whats difference? The answer is very obviously yet people got confused. Private IP address means it is private from the world, and no one can see it, while public IP address is of course public and world can see them, that is how other VP finds other VP.
If you have OjO, and wanted to know your public IP address. I am not sure how to find on OjO, but you can go on your computer type in
WhatIsMyIP.com and that is public IP address you need.
If you type in
whatsmyip.com and you got the answer, give that answer to your friend and have him or her call you with that Public IP address.
For Sorenson VP, it is very easy to locate the public IP address and it is 99.99% guarantee to work. Go on VP, click Setting --> Network --> Public IP and on the first line you will see "auto-detect public IP address (xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx)" you see your public IP by that (xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx) and use that.
