## Additional Information

- In many cases, these are not hard requirements. The system works without a dedicated room controller, but a dedicated room controller is strongly recommended. The screen share adapter for instant plug-in content sharing is also not required but recommended for environments where users may not have wireless access.
- If you are having issues with your internet connection, please contact your internet provider, as your 8x8 system will not work without it.
