Abstract

A system and/or method that can reduce impact of network latency can be provided. Information associated with a user device participating in an online meeting can be determined, for user devices connecting to the online meeting. Based on the information, the user devices can be grouped. For each of the user devices in a group, network quality associated with network connection between a user device in the group and a server managing the online meeting can be evaluated. Based on the network quality, at least one user device in the group can be designated to operate as a sharer device to at least one other user device in the group. The sharer device can be caused to stream data directly from the server during the online meeting. That one other user device can be caused to connect with and stream data from the sharer device.
