Best Practices for Taking a Respondus Monitor Exam
Modified on: Thu, Aug 17 2023 11:31 AM- Ensure you are on the most updated version of Respondus LockDown Browser (directions on how to update to the latest version of Respondus are available on D2L and our Pulse Covid-19 Student Resources Page).
- A hardwired Ethernet connection is the best option. Please note that most wireless routers allow you to connect via an ethernet cable, if your home does not provide wall ethernet connection points.
- If a hardwired Ethernet connection isn't possible, restart your modem/router and move as close to the router (Wi-Fi access point) as you can.
- Restart your computer and manually shut down all programs other than LockDown Browser.
- Shut down all other bandwidth intensive applications that might be running on the network, if possible. Examples would be cell phones, tablets, online gaming, Netflix, etc.
