Some campus and corporate networks, VPNs, and firewalls will by default block traffic for Gather video calls. If you are using a campus or corporate network, VPN or firewall, and are having trouble accessing Gather, you can try the following actions to fix it:

  • Disable your VPN or Firewall

  • Visit your VPN provider's support website and try different connection options

  • Change your connection to a different server or network if your VPN will allow you to do so

  • Ask your network administrator to unblock the following endpoints, which we use to provide video calls on Gather:
