Identified

As more users have moved to work and learn from home, some ISPs do not have sufficient capacity available on their interconnections with us to cater for the increased demand, and we have seen some congestion of traffic for users on those ISPs.

As a consequence some home users may experience choppy video and audio in Zoom meetings at peak times.

AARNet are working with major ISPs to increase the capacity of the connections between us, and expect to see the first increases come online this week.

We suggest users look to schedule meetings outside of peak periods (11am to 3pm AEDT).
