Sometimes there is an interruption in an internet connection. There is a redial button on RealBridge that restarts the audio and video connections. Use it if the connection fails, or if your audio and video get out of sync. You will always remain at the table while this is taking place.
To see if this is something you need to do, test your internet speed. We recommend this tool. You will need a minimum of 10-15 Mbps of download speed and 5-10 Mbps of upload speed. If you are not getting this from where you are sitting. Move closer to your router and re-run the test.
iPad users have reported that the audio is too quiet on RealBridge. In the user settings page, there is a volume boost setting to make others louder.
Apple will sometimes download and install updates in the background. You will always get a notification asking whether you want the update. Make sure to select "Ask me Later" or "Install Tonight" to ensure the updates don't occur while you are playing on RealBridge.
