    Did you try turning it off and on again?
    It's all about taking action and not being lazy. So you do the work, whether it's fitness or whatever. It's about getting up, motivating yourself and just doing it.

    Good point. He's probably hacked his ISP by now for faster speeds

    I mean, 30 megs is pretty good. Based on how little red they've filled in on their video bar, they're looking for a couple hundred or something? Wow. Come on. Seems kind of unreasonable.

    But to answer your question, to get that kind of speed, only way I know how is: to get it.

    Call up an ISP and order the gigabit plan or something. That's a lot of bandwidth for video chat, though.

    Ya that doesn't sound right at all, they are just bringing language tutors together with language students..

    Maybe try the test again, then do a speedtest.net test and submit both results in a help request on their form.

    Here is the FAQ on it

    Also, are you going over wifi or a wired connection? You might get better results over a wired connection.

    They want more bandwidth than streaming video providers for sending 4k video. Wonder why that is.

    Yeah, so a couple of things are at play here:
    1) what are the technical requirements of Cambly? I checked their website but couldn't see it outlined, maybe it's discussed during account setup?
    2) what is your ISP providing you? (this is the max speed you'll be able to achieve. getting higher than this means paying for a better plan)
    **Important: Cambly was connecting to your Camera and testing speeds .. so this is an upload speed test (your camera -> internet), not download which almost everyone always talks about (because downloading TV)

    If your internet plan is good enough for Cambly's requirements, then I'd go to speedtest.net and benchmark your result, make sure that your computer is utilizing what your ISP can provide you. As others have mentioned, wifi is slower than wired ethernet .
    -Without going into too much detail, WiFi isn't a dedicated link (because it's just blasting out WiFi signals, as opposed to a dedicated cable link), and it works just like walkie talkie radio (half-duplex), it only sends (talks) or receives (listens) at any one time (but obviously, computers work very quickly).
    **If the speedtest shows you're getting the required specs, then I'd talk to Cambly to see what the hold up is.

    If your computer isn't getting the minimum specification, make sure to get the wired connection and re-test.
    -Also, don't be connected to VPN or be doing any other weird stuff (like running bit-torrent uploads, etc). I'm only getting 16 down/30 up on my PIA VPN right now (which is good .. I can download a couple gigabytes in 20 minutes, plenty for my use).

    If your wired connection isn't getting what your ISP provides, make sure there aren't any data hogs on your network, and make sure your computer isn't really old and/or crappy (maybe try a 2nd device). If there's still issues, you'll probably have to talk to your ISP to get things ironed out.
