Once you enter your webinar, the webinar is "live". This means that anything that you share
(i.e. webcam, mic, presentation slides, videos, etc.) will be visible/audible to your audience
(if anyone is in the room). We highly recommend testing your mic/camera/presentation etc.
before your audience enters the room.
Before the webinar it is important to review all of our system requirements to ensure the
best possible experience in the BigMarker webinar room.
● TEST, TEST then TEST again!!! Make sure you and your other presenters test
the system at least a day BEFORE your webinar. You can schedule one like
you would a regular webinar.
● If you are planning on attending from a school, large corporation, or religious
institution, make sure you are not behind a Firewall, or open the necessary ports
if you are.
● Update your Web Browser, you need the latest version of Chrome, Firefox,
Safari, Edge, or Opera.
● Test your speed: High-Speed Internet Connection: A consistent high-speed
connection with speeds of 5 mbps+ is required(15 mbps is optimum if you will be
sharing your screen, video or presentation). Test your speed. If possible, a wired
connection is much more stable and will help prevent dropped connections and
interference.
● If possible, a wired connection is much more stable and will help prevent
dropped connections and interference.
● To increase your bandwidth, close all programs and applications not being
used in your webinar.
