If you are having trouble starting your session, please follow this checklist

• Make sure you're using one of our supported web browsers:
  • Google Chrome (latest release version).
  • Google Chrome for Android (latest release version).
  • Firefox (latest release version).
  • Firefox for Android (latest release version).
  • Internet Explorer 10 and 11 with the OpenTok Plugin for Internet Explorer

• For Google Chrome browser: Click on the ‘Allow’ button on top left corner of Google Chrome to connect your camera and microphone for video call.
• For Mozilla Firefox: Click on the ‘Share your device’ button on top left side of Mozilla Firefox to connect your camera and microphone.
• If you have an issue with your camera or speakers, check if the camera or speakers work on a different browser. For instance, if you are using Firefox check if it works with Chrome instead.
• Make sure that the right camera and speaker is selected.
• Make sure that the speaker volume is turned up.
• Does the camera work in a google’s webrtc demo: https://apprtc.appspot.com ?
• Restart your computer/laptop. Sometimes restarting the device can fix a problem.

If you are unable to hear audio, please follow the steps below:

1. Try refreshing the page. In many cases, sound issues are only temporary. 
2. Make sure the issue is not with the speakers themselves. Make sure they are on, plugged in, that the volume is turned up, and that audio works on other applications and websites.
3. Try a different browser (such as Chrome, or Firefox) to see if there is a local issue on your browser.
4. Make sure that the other entities microphone is working. They can test their microphone by going to a site which requires audio (for e.g. Skype or https://www.onlinemictest.com)
5. When allowing permissions on the browser, make sure that the right microphone has been selected.
6. You can also try restarting your computer and browser to see if that helps.
7. Check to make sure you have the latest version of your browser. 
8. Clear your browser's cache and cookies, and then restart it.

We recommend a minimum dedicated 350kb/s down per downloaded stream, as well as 350kb/s up per uploaded stream to maintain a stable video connection. To test your bandwidth, you can use the following tool SpeedTest.net that can generally give you a pretty good idea of how good you connection is.
