If you'd like to use any of the audio available on IXL, you'll need a sound card and speakers (or headphones).
Some printable resources require a PDF viewer, which is most likely installed on your computer. If not, no problem. You can download Adobe Reader for free.
An Internet connection speed of at least 128Kbps is recommended. If you want to connect via a proxy device, it must obey the HTTP/1.1 protocol, including all caching and anti-caching directives.
