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.
