Speed test

In the call lobby you can optionally start a speed test (1) to check the speed and suitability of your internet connection before the meeting.

Start Speedtest Figure 1: With "Start speed test" (1) you take a short measurement.

After about 20 seconds you will receive an evaluation. You can repeat the test at any time with Restart Speed Test (2) (Figure 2).

Tips for participating when the internet connection is slow

If your connection is weaker, you can still participate in the video conference. If necessary, you can deactivate your camera and thus save bandwidth (Figure 3).

Alternatively, you can also reduce the video quality (4) during the conference under Activate camera (3) or completely prevent the display. This setting has no effect on the other participants in the conference.
