Antoher thing that helps (even though I haven't got anyone to
acknowledge it yet) is to use the log from your router. It shows what
connections have been made. For example, when you use IVS, it should
show a connection from your Replay to the Replay server, and then one
from your Replay to the other person's Replay. Most routers should
allow logging.
