Other Recommendations:

• High bandwidth is recommended. A DSL connection at 512 Mbps.
• It is recommended that you use a PC with Windows and Internet Explorer 7.0 or higher. If you are using a Mac, please use the Safari web browser. With a high speed/broadband internet connect.
• Make sure you do not have pop-ups disabled in your internet browser settings.
• Make sure that your internet browser is Active X enabled.
• Wifi is not recommended. The problem with WiFi is signal strength can vary causing bandwidth to increase or decrease.  
• We recommend a wired connection. A wired connection gives a consistent signal and consistent bandwidth. A wired connection provides a better experience.
• It's better for organizations with low bandwidth to only have the plenary sessions running on 1 computer in a conference room than having 10 individual people running the session on 10 computers at their desks.
• Audio (sound) is projected through your computer speakers. Be sure your computer is equipped with speakers so you can hear the presenters.
