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?

    We did a Test with a 4K Video which runs "24/7" on the laptop over usb-c lan. No issues at all.

    After 10 Minutes MS Teams the usb-c still crashes (was not hot at all)

    I have the exact same problem as well.  USB-C dock with Lenovo Thinkpad laptop.  When using at home without the USB-C, no issues.  In the office, everyday issues with MS Teams.  Drops LAN connection at random times (usually a few minutes into the call or meeting).  Unplugging the network cable and re-plugging solved before, but that does not work now.  The reboot works, but takes too long only to face the same fate when I join a MS teams call/meeting again.

    Very frustrated.

    Check with Lenovo Vantage (if you’re using Lenovo devices) or try here: https://www.displaylink.com/downloads/windows
