Resolved! Zoom (or Team) slows down internet speed by 30 times

Seeing more responses on the issue, I updated my original message to make it more useful.

 

Problem:

On my Windows 11 laptop (Lenovo ThinkPad, E495, ethernet wired connection), when I start Zoom (even without signing in, same with Microsoft Team), the internet speed test shows a 30-times drop, from 450 Mbps to ~10 Mbps.

 

Temporary remedy: 

After your Zoom session, QUIT Zoom (or Team) COMPLETELY so your internet speed is back to normal. You make sure this by clicking the "Show hidden icons" arrow at the bottom-right of your screen to see all the applications running and exit Zoom if it is still there.

 

Attempted fix. It worked briefly for an earlier version of Zoom, but does not work anymore (after Zoom version evolution) as of Oct. 11, 2023 :

   1.) Search for the "Control Panel" and open this up.

   2.) In the window that comes up, click on the "Network and Internet" link

   3.) In there, there will be a link that says "Internet Options", click on that to get another pop-up window

   4.) In that pop-up window, towards the top, look for the tab that says "Advanced" and click on that

   5.) Scroll to the bottom of that window, look for where it lists "Use TLS", check "Use TLS 1.3", and uncheck "Use TLS 1.2". 

 

Also tried Google Meet. Although the network speed test shows no issue, all applications become slow and lagging. It is worse than Zoom -- even the slowdown-plagued version.

Hi

As my first thread disappeared here a second try.

 

I often have the following problem while hosting a zoom meeting.

The audio and video is working fine, so my internet connection in generell is fine. But it looks like that zoom is stealing all my bandwidth. I cannot use my browser or other apps that needs internet connection (like App Store on my MacBook).

I was using zoom 6.3.10 and am updating it to 6.3.11 right now. But I don't think that the problem will be gone then.

 

My problem is similar to https://community.zoom.com/t5/Zoom-Meetings/Zoom-or-Team-slows-down-internet-speed-by-30-times/m-p/122236/thread-id/69875.

Unfortunately I don't see the option "Conference Bandwidth Performance --> Gives maximum bandwidth to the conference app in use ON/OFF" on my MacBook or anything similar in zoom.

I use Zoom for meeting, messages, and phone calls for my work. I was excited when in September 2023 Zoom and Android Auto announced Zoom will now be an app in Android Auto, see https://news.zoom.us/zoom-for-android-auto/ and https://blog.google/products/android/new-apps-for-android-auto-and-cars-with-google-built-in/ and yet I still don't have an app for Zoom in Android Auto yet and I can't figure out why. Anyone know how to enable the Zoom Meetings app to work in Android Auto? I have a 2019 Honda Pilot and Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra phone software and apps are all up to date.

Just last week, my students haven't been able to get into my weekly meeting. Each student registers for their own log in link and for years all has worked fine. Now, almost all of them are unable to get in because it says Registration Closed. But, I've not closed registration and can't figure out how to open it. And, the oddest thing is that one student could get on today but everyone else couldn't. I've updated my zoom  to the latest and it is still happening. I use Chrome on a mac. Please help.

Resolved! Missing Emoji option on Zoom Chat

When in zoom meeting my chat window does not have emoji option. Happens whether attendee or co-host. All other attendees have it.  This has been going on all week.  I have used multiple computers, multiple zoom accounts, and reinstalled zoom twice.

annotation icon blocking my control tools

The annotation icon (pen in a box) always stays at the lower left corner of the Zoom window that blocks my control tools.  Any way to remove/relocate it?  Thanks.

Hi, how are you?

I've been trying to schedule a meeting where everyone can share their screen at any time, without me (the host) having to enter the meeting to change that option. I haven't found this option and it bothers me to have to be the first one to enter the meeting to allow sharing.

Does anyone know how to do this?

I use Zoom for a meetup group, and attend other zoom calls as well.

 

I receive a notification whenever one of my  calls will begin usually as soon as a person logs in.  I also receive a summary of the content.

 

The problem is that the "From" address does not reference my group, but has the name of another person who leads a call for something entirely different.  The real email is  ***********.  It shows "person -different organization."

 

I use an address on outlook but use  apple mail on my mac.  Is this an issue with zoom, outlook, or apple?
