It is highly recommended that participants use a desktop or laptop computer, hardwired to your home network if possible.

During the AGM, you may need to limit usage of other devices on your network to ensure adequate bandwidth for the AGM (i.e. other devices will take up connection capacity). Cellular connections are slower and should be avoided.
