Firewalls, Permissions, & Whitelisting
If your network is managed by a school district or government entity, PLEASE provide a point of contact in the IT department so we are able to communicate our needs for unblocking firewalls.
Unblocking these items isn’t necessarily required, but HIGHLY recommended to ensure the ability to create a smooth streaming experience over your network. Due to the amount of bandwidth needed for video streaming, if this is not completed, the feed is extremely unreliable.
Should you have any questions or need further assistance, please don’t hesitate to contact our Operations Director at [trevor@gols.co]. We are here to help make your streaming experience a success. Please fill out the form below to submit your site’s internet information. You will need to submit the form for each individual site if you are coordinating multiple locations.
