iChatAV Problem Defies Reason

I have setup five iMacs (2 G4s and 3 G5s) at five different locations.
All systems have 10.4.4 installed, iSight cameras, and cable Internet
service with routers. All iMacs can audio/video conference successfully
with each other through iChatAV except that the two G4 iMacs won't.
They attempt the connection, and each of us can actually see the other
for a few seconds until iChatAV displays the message

Failed to start Video Chat because:

AccountName did not respond.

All five of the iMacs successfully connect to the Apple test site too.

Any thoughts on this?

The third sentence should have ended as:

. . . except that the two G4 iMacs won't connect to each other.
