“If you will be working remotely, either occasionally or on a permanent basis, you must have a reliable internet connection through a cable or fiber-optic broadband service with minimum speeds of 10 Mbps download and 5 Mbps upload.”— Built In — Cambium Learning Group Sr. Test Developer (ELA) posting · source

What passes for Cambium Learning Group
A wired connection — fiber, cable, or DSL — with an Ethernet cable from your computer to the router. Fiber is the strongest fit: upload speed matches download, latency stays low and consistent, and weather doesn't affect it.
If you're on satellite, a cellular hotspot, or 5G home internet, no speed test will get you past Cambium Learning Group's rule — the connection type is what's being checked. The fix is a wired line, installed with the Ethernet connection in the room where you'll work.
Before your Cambium Learning Group tech check
- Confirm a wired provider reaches your address.
- Run Ethernet to your workspace — not just to the router's room.
- Turn off Wi-Fi and any VPN on the work computer.
- Run a speed test on the wired line (target: at least 10 Mbps down / 5 Mbps up) and screenshot it.

Cambium Learning Group internet questions, answered
Cambium Learning Group permits Wi-Fi on some programs, but the connectivity scan during onboarding is run on a wired connection. Plan for Ethernet at the desk.
At least 10 Mbps download and 5 Mbps upload. The exact minimum can vary by client program, so confirm against the job listing you are applying to.
Cambium Learning Group does not publish a blanket exclusion on satellite, but the speed and latency minimums still apply and satellite often fails the latency test.
Cambium Learning Group does not name hotspots as prohibited, but cellular service shares tower capacity and is a common cause of a failed connectivity scan.
