Google+ Hangout Question (3 posts)

Topic tags: Google+
  • OK, I was in a Google+ hangout today, and for some reason I kept losing connection–getting an error from Google that said their server couldn’t restore properly.

    I’ve only done a few G+ hangouts, but haven’t had this issue before. When it was only me and one other (I started the Hangout) sound and reliability were fine. As soon as the 3rd person joined, it became virtually unusable.

    Is there something I can do to help avoid this? I was at home with a good Comcast signal–we get generally decent speed of 25 mbps or more.

    Any suggestions for troubleshooting welcome. I am supposed to do this bi-weekly.

  • Google generally has a good service, are you sure that it is not your network connection?

  • @richardmclaughlin No, not sure, although everything else internet was working fine. In theory it’s fast enough.

    I’ll just have to try again before our next session to see if I still have the challenge.

    We have not had issues using the iPad to talk, though.  Hopefully it was just an aberration.
