Update your browser, clear the cache, and check content filters
If you attempt to launch Reading Assistant and see a blank screen or "clouds" screen that looks like this, you can take several troubleshooting steps.
1. Check that firewall and content filter requirements have been met
Firewalls, Content Filters, Proxy Servers, and Virus Protection can significantly impact Reading Assistant’s overall performance, even when bandwidth appears sufficient.
Contact your school or district's IT administrator to ensure content filters and proxy servers are correctly configured. See What are the Reading Assistant technical requirements?
