•Tab Bandwidth

In this tab you can set the bandwidth used by the TeamSpeak client. Like it says in the Information you can set it to 6 kilobit for minimal bandwidth usage or unlimited for unconstrained usage of bandwidth. Note that 6 kilobit is the bare minimum for the client to work ( the lowest codec, Celp 5.1, uses about 6 kilobits per second; down and up). If the channel of your favorite server uses the 16.4 kilobit you will need to set the bandwidth to 17 kilobit in order to make the client recieve and transmit sound. This function is meant for low bandwidth users that want to constrain their bandwidth. In the current architecture of TeamSpeak if multiple people in your channel talk, the bandwidth will double (if 2 people talk at the same time) or triple (if 3 people talk at the same time). If you are experiencing lag in your games while running TeamSpeak you can lower the bandwidth TeamSpeak uses. The most useful here is to set a limit for the upload bandwidth, set it to the first higher number of the codec your favorite channel uses ( for GSM 16.4, set it to 17 kbits). Experiment a bit to find the optimum setting for your case.

There are a couple of presets in the dropdown menu, however you can type in your preferred upper limit of bandwidth too. When you enter a value, the bandwidth in KiloBytes is shown on the right. Click on Ok to make the changes permanent or Cancel to cancel the operation.
