MS Teams and network drops

Anonymous

So I keep having an issue where people are losing network connection while on teams meeting while using a dock. We have Lenovo USB-C docks, but when you are connected to a teams meeting with a network cable plugged into the dock. It drops the meeting, it could be 5 mins into the meeting, 20 mins into the meeting. I cannot find a connection to the length of time it gives you online before you drop. 

It only happens to you if you have a USB-C Lenovo Dock, plugged into a Lenovo laptop, with a network cable plugged into it. If you pulled the cable and work off wifi it NEVER has a problem. 

I have done dock driver updates, dock firmware update. 

Any ideas? has anyone else had this problem?

    Hi Folks!

       We have the same issue and we want to test Monitors with docking station builded in, instead of external USB-C docks. We will see next week.

    And we are sure that this is not happening with ZOOM app.

    We have users with all sorts of combinations of DisplayPort, HDMI, DisplayPort - DVI etc. and it all still occurs.

    One thing I've yet to explore, is if it happens on all Teams calls or only those with more than two parties

    I want to note, it is not only related to Thinkpads only, we have the problems on our Surface Pro 7 too...

    It is happening randomly and on most of our Hardware :/
