# Improve your Live call quality

If your call quality is poor, it's probably due to a poor internet connection. This can cause dropped calls, delays, and low-quality audio and video.

Below, you'll find some quick tips to help improve your call quality when participating in a Live mission.

* Improve your internet connection: Make sure you have a strong WiFi signal, or if possible, use a wired connection via ethernet cable.
* Close other tabs and applications: Dscout Live relies on having plenty of your computer's bandwidth to support the call. File sharing applications, streaming audio or video, downloading files, or even just having another browser open are all things that can eat up bandwidth.
* Plug in your laptop: If your device has low battery or is in power-saving mode, try plugging the laptop into a power source or switching it to maximum performance mode.

If call quality does not improve, consider ending the session and requesting to reschedule for a time when you have access to better internet quality.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://participanthelp.dscout.com/interview-studies/live-troubleshooting/improve-your-live-call-quality.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
