Macbook Pro 13" 2011: recent video conferencing problems My MBP ran video conferences on Skype, zoom, Teams, and Google hangouts etc just fine in 2020. It has started having issues i.e interrupted and lagging video, distorted and lagging audio, sometimes the whole machine just freezes, other times the app (whichever is being used) crashes. Its rendered work-from-home impossible for me. The video calls begin ok but the above issues start within minutes, and then they keep worsening as time goes on, eventually leading to the MBP hanging mid-call in 25-30 minutes. I updated zoom and upgraded to McOS High Sierra 10.13.6 (suggested update) in the hopes of resolving these problems. I have found many problems through EtreCheck, however they seem to be chronic problems that should have interfered last year too. I will paste the report here. Would be great to know how to go about resolving these problems. I am not great at this. Thanks.

Issue on Google Meet, Zoom and any Video Conferencing Platform Whenever I go on a videoconference on my new 2020 MacBook Air i3 after around 30 minutes or an hour, the internet stops working on the whole computer no matter what browser I use, wether it safari, chrome or firefox. I have to turn off and restart the whole computer to get back on the call. Its really annoying to be doing a business call and have your computer suddenly stop working and miss the call. I've tried everything, reformatting the hard drive and doing a clean install of OS X, changing users on the Mac, deleting all softwares running on the background, closing all apps except the browser but nothing. Nothing seems to fix the issue, not software, not an app its seems to be simply a hardware issue. I'm stuck with a new Mac being unable to do business meetings.

Google Meet Issues- Monterey Version 12.3 I have recently updated my Mac to the latest update of Monterey. I am not able to share my screen although my browser is checked in the Screen Recording tab under Privacy in System Preferences. Please solve this ASAP. This is very specific to Google meet.
