Most of the audio glitches we hear of are on the listener's end. Here's how to minimize them:
- Close any unneeded programs, especially programs that access the Internet

- If all else fails, we have Phone-In Numbers. Instructions to connect are posted in the Chat area of your meeting room. To help keep class costs down, please use as a last resort.
