Switching to a Stable Network Before Session
An unstable internet connection can cause video lags, audio dropouts, and even session failures during tests or interviews on the Talview platform. Switching to a more stable network before your session can prevent last-minute disruptions and ensure a smooth experience.
🚫 Unstable Network – Why You Should Switch Before Your Session
✅ Common Causes and Fixes
| What Might Be Wrong | What You Can Do |
|---|---|
| Using public Wi-Fi or mobile data | Switch to a private, stable home or office broadband connection. Avoid mobile hotspots. |
| Network has inconsistent speed | Restart your router/modem or connect to a stronger network. Use LAN if possible. |
| Others are using bandwidth heavily | Ask others to pause streaming, gaming, or large downloads during your session. |
| You’re on a metered or capped network | Move to an uncapped network to avoid throttling or cutoffs mid-session. |
| Using school or office network with restrictions | Contact IT to whitelist Talview domains and ensure open access. |
| Poor signal due to distance | Move closer to your router or use a wired connection for improved reliability. |
