Why Cant I Launch Video Calls on Google Meet?
Keep in mind that very few schools allow students to make calls freely.
In most cases, you could only join calls.
The same is valid if youre using a Parent account.
Check Your data pipe Connection
ensure your data pipe connection is working properly.
Disconnect other devices using the connection to free up more bandwidth for Google Meet.
As a quick reminder, video calls require quite a lot of bandwidth.
Speaking of bandwidth and speed, use a cable connection if thats possible.
Dont forget to kickstart your router.
Use a different connection and test whether you notice any improvements.
Disable Your Firewall and VPN
Your firewall might be preventing Google Meet from launching new video calls.
Disable your firewall, and test whether the issue is gone.
If youreusing a VPN, block the tool and take a stab at relaunch a new Google Meet call.
For step-by-step instructions, go to your firewalls or VPNs official support page.
If Google Meet is still throwing the same fault signal,clear your cache and cookies.
power cycle your net web surfer and give it another spin.
If the error persists, switch to a different web app.
Google Meet supports Chrome, Firefox, Edge, and Safari.
Just check that your web app version is updated.
If youre using an unsupported internet tool, switch to Chrome and check the results.
By the way, dont use a Beta web app version.
Always use a stable release.
