Each conference is secured with a PIN code, which is known only to the participants. The conference can be connected only by entering this code.
AES encrypt to the communication channel is 1024/256, we use it to make sure no stranger join the conference. It is also possible to record the conference and then broadcast it securely on the Internet.Does the Port conferencing service work on ADSL and other unguaranteed connections?
Yes, it does, but with lower picture quality, typically SD or CIF.
ADSL is a nonguaranteed service with sufficient downlink speed (8 to 16Mbps) but very low uplink speed (256 to 512kbps). When you run our program the connection speed is tested and according to the result the connection quality is automatically set
What if both picture and sound are of poor quality?
In that case, you can join the conference via audio – directly from Port Conferencing program, or in case of a very poor internet connection you can call into the conference from your phone (charged by standard rates of your mobile operator).
It is probably caused by the poor internet connection. You can check your connection quality using the link CONNECTON TEST, if the resultant values digger from the promised ones, solve that problem with your provider of the internet connection .
I can’t get connected, although the Internet runs.
Problem might be with your firewall settings. Some of the hotels and public places are more secured and it is necessary to negotiate opening UDP/1194 or TCP/443 ports for outgouing connection with your provider.
