MS Teams and network drops

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?

    Same issue here, 

    Lenovo USB-C docking station, on both a Lenovo Yoga and Microsoft Surface laptop.

    As soon as I pull the network cable and use the Wifi, there are no problems at all.

    It's not, it's Teams Video utilising Ethernet over USB-C (with a high probability that it occurs when USB-C is handling multiple peripherals, such as multiple video channels)

    I'd love to know if anyone using Hangouts has this issue. I want to rule out that it's teams but I don't have much to compare it to. I turned on logging as well with teams and checked all the logs but it doesn't seem to show much other than a disconnection occurred.

    It also seems that the usb-c docks are realtek audio and ethernet.
