// handle microphone device change
if (device.kind === 'audioinput') {
console.log('mic change', device);

Subscribe to the mediaScoreUpdate event to monitor network

meeting.self.on('mediaScoreUpdate', ({ kind, isScreenshare, score, scoreStats }) => {

score
);
}

if (kind === 'audio') {
console.log('Your audio quality score is ', score);
