Webex Connection Problems: Causes, Checks and Cellular Failover with Speedify

Seeing Cisco WebEx Connection Problems? Fix Them Easily!

Cisco WebEx meetings that stall, echo, or throw you out come down to two things: software on your computer fighting with WebEx, and an internet connection that keeps losing small amounts of data, which you notice as frozen video. BlueJeans calls break down the same way; see fixing BlueJeans connection issues.

Speedify is an app that joins Wi-Fi, 4G/5G cellular, Ethernet, Starlink and satellite internet connections into one steadier internet connection. Speedify can only keep you online through a drop when it has two or more internet connections to work with, for example Wi-Fi plus your phone’s 4G/5G cellular. On a single connection, Speedify works as an encrypted VPN and cannot stop that connection from dropping. You will see here what causes Cisco WebEx connection problems, how to work through them, and why using Speedify saves you that troubleshooting next time.

Speedify keeps your call running when the connection under it fails.

Cisco WebEx connection problems usually come from one of two places:

  • a software conflict between WebEx and your hardware
  • connection issues on your part: low bandwidth, high loss, throttling, etc.

Read below to learn how to address Cisco WebEx connection problems.

Causes for WebEx Connection Problems

One of the main causes of Cisco WebEx connection problems is actually how you connect to the Internet. When you have a slow, or unreliable connection, WebEx may not be able to work properly. Sometimes, you may not even realize that you have a problem until you try and use WebEx.

As other video conferencing software, Cisco WebEx uses significant bandwidth, especially for video calls. Your device is sending a complex set of data packets to the device of the person you are trying to talk to. And their device is sending packets of data to you. The flow of these packets gets interrupted if your Wi-Fi connection has a momentary blip or your cellular connection fluctuates. It can take a few moments for the data to catch up.

This results in WebEx connection problems: calls where the audio cuts in and out, where the video lags, and where the audio and video don’t sync properly.

Save Time Troubleshooting WebEx Connection Problems: Use Speedify

To fix Cisco WebEx connection problems, here’s what you have to do:

  1. Check if the WebEx service is operational and there are no issues. You can do that on their service status page.
  2. Check this known issues and limitations list for WebEx. If you’re seeing an issue reported there, see what they recommend.

If all WebEx systems are operational, then you need a way to get a more stable and fast Internet connection. Speedify combines multiple internet connections into one faster, more reliable connection for live streaming, video calling and web browsing. The Speedify app works by monitoring the quality of your Internet connections in the background. It can combine your Wi-Fi and cellular connection simultaneously in a single “pipe” on your mobile device. Or combine any number of connections on a computer. This improves your bandwidth and leads to smoother Cisco WebEx conferencing.

Speedify keeps you connected when something happens to one of your connections. When you stumble upon a bad Wi-Fi hotspot, or one connection suddenly goes out, Speedify reroutes your data through the other available connection(s) in milliseconds and keeps the same public IP address, so the meeting carries on.

Get Stable, Fast and Secure Cisco WebEx Conferences with Speedify

Speedify does more than just manage your Internet connections: Speedify also encrypts all of the data you send and receive from your device, like a VPN. This helps keep your private information and conversations secure from digital eavesdroppers and cyber thieves.

Speedify does not just help with WebEx connection issues. It also makes the connection more stable and secure, and improves your overall Internet experience.

Other VPNs slow down your Internet connection because of the way they work. Speedify gives you encryption while also helping you stay online and, with two or more connections, speeding up your Internet connection.
