If you as the Organizer loose connection with the webinar, you have five minutes to reconnect before the webinar ends by itself.
I always have a second computer connected as an Organizer in case the main computer crashes. That second computer will maintain the webinar until I can get the main computer reconnected.
But you asked about the wifi going down. For my big webinars, I always have a remote person as a Co-Organizer. If I loose everything, that Co-Organizer can keep the webinar going until I can get reconnected.

Thank you Chris - so that means the allocated Attendee's wifi will take over? That's great to know. Thank you!
I appreciate your prompt attention to this question, it gives me one less thing to worry about on a webinar we are running this afternoon. 🙂
Many thanks!

To keep the metting going, the wifi or Internet connection is based on whomever is the Organizer. You can have multiple Organizers at one time, but you have to have at least one.
