I am having technical difficulties accessing the streaming content, what can I do?
  • Disconnect from a VPN (Virtual Private Network).
  • Check firewalls. If you are at a work institution, try another network like a mobile device or home network (some institutions have robust firewalls that will block some virtual features).
  • Clear your web browser history and cache or try another browser.
  • Check your internet connection. A minimum of 5 Mbps is required, but 15+ Mbps is recommended. You can check this at www.speedtest.net
  • Close any other windows/tabs that may be using a lot of bandwidth.
  • If you are at home, make sure you are not also using streaming services like Netflix, etc., that could impact your available bandwidth.
  • Use a hard-wired internet connection, if possible.
  • If you have to use Wi-Fi, make sure you are close to the Wi-Fi device.
  • Completely log out and log back in.
  • Please note that if you pause the livestream on your computer for more than 15 minutes, you will need to log out and log back in.
  • If the steps above do not resolve the issue, please contact ASTRO eLearning by email or at 703-502-1550, option 2.
