Questions and fixes
It says it can’t connect, or moves are slow
Some networks block the fast connection. The game switches to a slower one by itself after a few seconds, so wait a moment. School networks sometimes block online games altogether.
Is there a chat?
No. Opponents only see a name, a level or rating and the moves. There is no chat.
