How can I pre-test my WiFi connection and audio set up before joining my scheduled Connect250 conversation?
Here's a step-by-step guide for testing your video and audio set-up before joining your Connect250 Conversation.
To run the pre-test prior to scheduling or joining a video conversation with your Connect250 match, please complete the following steps:
- Click this link. The test should begin automatically.
- Say something so the test can confirm the microphone is receiving sound.
- As the test progresses, you'll see two graphs displaying your audio and video connection stability.
- When it's finished, you'll be taken to a results screen which should display any errors or software incompatibilities.
- Scroll to the bottom of the results page, select Save this data as simple text, and copy/paste that text into a document to confirm whether or not your device and WiFi set-up is optimal for Connect250. You can also send email to StoryCorps with your results to contactus@storycorps.org if you have any follow-up questions about the kind of device, browser, or audio set-up you are planning to use for your Connect250 conversations.
