One click measures your speed, ping and jitter, then tells you in plain words whether your connection is good enough for a smooth webinar.

After the test you get the colour verdict above. Here is what each number means and how to fix a weak result.
Speed shows how quickly data travels from our servers to you. For a webinar viewer this is the most important number, because the higher it is, the sharper and steadier the picture.
Ping is how long a small piece of data takes to reach the server and come back. The lower it is, the faster everything reacts, so pages, audio and video load sooner. For comfortable webinars aim for 60 ms or less. If your ping is high, try a cable instead of Wi-Fi, move closer to your router and restart it, and close other apps that use the internet like downloads or video in another tab. If it stays high every time, the problem may be on your provider's side, so it is worth asking them about it.
Jitter is how much the delay changes from one moment to the next. It appears on almost any connection, whether cable, Wi-Fi or mobile, and it grows when the network is busy. With Wi-Fi the main cause is many devices sharing the same network, which is common in apartment blocks and offices. Steady (low) jitter is what keeps the video from freezing.
