Performance Impact of Web Proxies: The VSee client can connect to all the above hosts via a Web Proxy. However, A/V performance will be dependent on the Web Proxy’s capacity. Some factors that might affect performance through a proxy are:
Load on the Web Proxy
Prioritization of persistent HTTP(S) connections through the proxy.
For optimal performance:
The Web Proxy should allow persistent HTTP(S) connections.
Messenger update service Automated check for new versions of VSee Messenger |

Testing VSee Connectivity
You can use the following page to test for basic VSee connectivity: VSee Network Test Page
If any of the test above result in failure, you need to resolve it first.

Proxy Servers
Many organizations utilize proxy servers with their networks. However, as VSee network traffic is already encrypted, passing this traffic through a proxy server does not make it any more secure. On the other hand, proxy servers can introduce performance problems. Proxy servers can introduce latency and packet loss, which can degrade audio and video quality where real-time streams are essential. Thus, bypassing proxies for VSee traffic is recommended as routing through all traffic through a proxy server might impact connectivity and A/V performance.
If proxy servers can not be bypassed, VSee services can connect to the above hosts via a proxy server. We recommend the following for better performance with a proxy server:
Proxy servers should allow persistent TCP connections.
Proxy servers should be configured to allow UDP traffic to the VSee TURN Servers at port 3478 and the Video Bridges at port 10000 to proceed directly.
Testing VSee Connectivity
VSee provides a suite of tools to help test that firewall rules are configured appropriately. Please note that only a subset of the requirements listed above are tested by these tools. It is important to ensure that the firewall rules listed above are followed, even if these tests pass. Failing to follow the firewall configuration requirements may cause issues such as intermittent bad call quality or dropped calls.
