Will dramatically increasing the number of participants in my Zoom room exacerbate technical probs?

I sometimes get the message "Internet connection unstable" and I'll freeze or turn into a robot for a minute or so when meeting with one person. I'm planning a session with about 40 people. Am I likely to have more technical problems?

PS, I'm hard-wired and there are no other devices connected or other programs running.

It is possible that you could have more issues with additional participants in the meeting, as that will be additional incoming video and audio on your end. I would recommend using the Stop incoming video option, as that may help you maintain a better connection while still being seen and heard by others in the meeting.
