Abstract

A system that incorporates teachings of the present disclosure may include, for example, determining a latency area of a network based on latency testing, identifying a configuration of a network route of a telepresence session exchanging media content between media processors of first and second users at first and second locations based on the latency area, determining a first latency associated with a first presentation of the media content at the first location, determining a second latency associated with a second presentation of the media content at the second location, and determining one of a first delay for the first presentation, a second delay for the second presentation or both based on one of the first latency, the second latency or both. Other embodiments are disclosed.
