Data usage & bandwidth
The Planet Protector Academy is a video-based resource, so please make sure you connect your Remote Control device to your school’s WiFi network to avoid expensive mobile data charges.
If your school has slow internet bandwidth, there may be a lag of a couple seconds between when you hit the arrow to change the slide and when it actually moves.
