Video Call Test

Run this five minutes before the call, not during it. We check the connection and your devices together; your microphone and camera need your browser's permission.

Video Call Test

How this test works

The page takes four steps: network, microphone, camera and speakers. For the network step it runs a Quick speed test. The microphone is listened to for 4 seconds and the camera is watched for 2.5 seconds. The page says what is likely, not that a call app will work.

How to read the result

The network verdict is likely, maybe or unlikely, and the weakest value sets it. Likely needs 4 Mbit/s down, 3.8 Mbit/s up and latency under 100 ms. Maybe starts at 1.3 Mbit/s down, 1.0 Mbit/s up and latency under 300 ms. The overall result is one of four: ready, check, not ready or incomplete.

What is typical

A microphone peak of -50 dB or higher counts as sound picked up in this test. Jitter under 30 ms is likely fine and under 100 ms maybe. Packet loss is not measured by the speed test, so it is listed as missing and not judged. The page lists these limits with a note that they follow Zoom, Google Meet and Microsoft Teams guidance.
