Factors to consider for enhancing the quality of your video calls in Kenya.

Quality Video conferencing in Kenya can be a nightmare, as we all know. People must set up accounts, download apps, and grant access to their microphones and cameras, among other things. Having a slow or nonexistent connection can be caused by weak Wi-Fi signals. Participants frequently stutter or stop speaking altogether due to delays, embarrassing one another or creating awkward pauses. Everyone is already worn out from constantly saying, “Can you hear me now?,” “Do you see my screen,” and “Sorry I’ve got a technical problem” while on a call.

But everyone present is here with us. Therefore, why not make an effort to make your meetings bearable for both you and your colleagues while also saving time by making some simple preparations? Let’s look at some crucial suggestions that will aid in your preparation for your upcoming video call!

Why does Quality Video Conferencing Matter?

Your video quality and resolution may change quickly during meetings for a variety of reasons, including:

• Quality of the bandwidth and your internet speed
• CPU usage
• capabilities of your microphone and camera
• Your device’s battery is almost empty.

How to improve the quality of video conferencing in Kenya

1. Inspect your gadgets

Not sure if your camera or headset is functioning? Spend a minute checking your audio and video settings before each video call. It’s always possible that your browser or video conferencing software chose the incorrect microphone or camera, or that your device simply won’t be recognized by the system. After you’ve completed the necessary setup, you can make a test call to ensure everything functions properly before you actually join the meeting.

2. Whenever possible, choose a wired connection

The most critical component for video calls is a steady connection. Even though Internet connections are 1,000 times faster than they were ten years ago, audio delays and interruptions are still a common occurrence. Frequently, WiFi is the cause of that. WiFi is wireless, so it can easily adapt to changes in your network’s environment. Bluetooth signals from nearby devices or other electronic devices could easily break your connection.  Just use wires for the best video conferencing experience. Unlike WiFi, Ethernet is faster and independent of other network connections.

3. Restart your Wi-Fi

Don’t let fate determine whether your meeting will be a success if you experience any connectivity problems. To update your router settings and enhance performance, restart your Wi-Fi. You can also perform a preliminary network speed test.

4. Concentrate and close other applications

Video conferences may require a lot of work. Close any open browser tabs and applications prior to the call to avoid overtaxing or overheating your CPU. Close all other video conferencing programs as well because they can access your microphone and camera and prevent a proper connection to your meeting.

5. Turn off your camera.

You’ve made every effort, but the meeting you attended was still terrible. Simply turn off your camera to reduce load and improve audio quality. Overall, audio is the most important aspect of communicating your ideas.

6. Select reputable video chat programs

Look for video communication programs that can handle high-quality video resolution and low bandwidth. The ideal software should be simple to use and take little time to train your staff to use. Finally, you should be able to make a call from anywhere using any operating system.
