Minimum connection speed required for Kira

My connection is too slow or keeps cutting out
Here are a few things to try:
- Disable your browser's adblockers or third-party extensions (or - use an incognito Chrome browser)
- Stop any downloads, file sharing, or streaming services on your computer
- Close all other open tabs, windows, and applications on your computer
- Use a wired connection instead of a wireless connection
- Restart your device
- Find an alternate location with a more stable internet connection, such as a friend or family member's house, a public library, coffee shop, internet cafe, or local University or College campus.
- In rare cases, you may need to disable your firewall if possible, especially in a corporate setting
- Try another device
