  • DON’T use a mobile device as a "hotspot" to connect your computer to the internet, since these connections can be unreliable.  

  • If you’re having trouble seeing your teacher or classmates, or if your teacher says your video isn’t visible, it’s most likely due to a spotty internet connection.
