Signal Indicator
Please submit a technical support ticket if you would like to enable this feature in your account.
A signal indicator will appear within the Media Player for any streaming media. This indicator will inform audience members if they do not have sufficient bandwidth to support the streaming media including presenter video, screen share, and video clips.
The following problems can contribute to having insufficient bandwidth:
- If you are connecting to the Internet through a slow connection, or over a congested WiFi or cellular (mobile) network.
- You are trying to access a webinar during peak Internet traffic hours.
- If you are connecting to the Internet from a mobile device.
- There is heavy traffic on your company network.
To optimize bandwidth, you may consider the following:
- Upgrading to a stronger, faster, and more stable connection.
- Minimize the number of applications you are running while accessing the event.
- Try accessing the event during an off-peak Internet traffic period when network congestion may have lessened.
