Slow Internet? These are ways to improve your online meetings

If you are at home, you can choose to buy a new router to improve the quality of your Wi-Fi network. In the work environment, there are limits to what can be done on the technical side. Still, that doesn't mean there aren't ways to improve your video calls.

In addition to technical factors, there are some simple measures that can increase the quality of video calls without depending on faster internet.

For example, how about cleaning the webcam lens or improving the lighting in the room where you are? Another option is to use wireless noise-cancelling headphones, ensuring that computer or cell phone microphones do not interfere with communication with other participants.
