Connecting Video and Audio
For the best video chat experience :
- Use the latest Google Chrome or Microsoft Edge browsers (other browsers may fail to support video chat).
- Make sure any other app or website which uses your camera is closed e.g. Zoom, MS Teams, etc.
- Avoid VPN connections where possible as they may add their own restrictions or prevent the video chat.
