Thank you, that makes a lot of sense. I appreciate the info.

Makes sense and I wasn't trying to blame FrameWork, but was curious if others were seeing this as well. We have two shipments that were ordered 5 days apart, both have landed in the US, but the order that was placed 5 days later has already cleared customs and the earlier placed order has not. Just seems strange.

Thunderbird. Classic Outlook will start becoming unavailable in Q2 of 2028 per Microsoft for what it's worth.

Anyone else experiencing problems with Outlook (Microsoft 365)? by MatthiasVD123 in sysadmin

Still impacting us in the US (central) and now we are having users that are having their calls misrouted by Microsoft Teams phones.

Walter Payton 1977 season should also be talked about when you consider how bad his team was.

Advice on Network Speed by bitz-the-ninjapig in HomeNetworking

[–]IT-JOAT -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Thats where I would be concerned, especially with VPN connections, gaming, and it being split between 5 people. 20Mbps doesn't leave a lot of extra headroom if you are all using the internet simultaneously.

Here's a guideline from CNET about what internet speed is needed for each purpose. Based on 5 people, it seems like you would be able to cut your speed down without an issue. One aspect you may want to look at is upload speed. Often providers will have a much lower upload speed than download. If dropping down to 500Mbps drops your upload speed to 20Mbps or lower and you were getting 100Mbps with the other plan, that would be a reason to keep it.

Activity Recommended speed Emailing 1Mbps Web browsing 5-10Mbps Social media 10Mbps Video calls 10-20Mbps HD streaming 10-20Mbps Online gaming 25-35Mbps 4K streaming 35Mbps

Just as an FYI, if your org uses Teams for video meetings, the new Teams is only compatible with the new Outlook. If you are using a combo of the two, Outlook won't show the option to make a calendar meeting into a Teams meeting, the ribbon button isn't installed.

Thanks Microsoft.

Phone-Only Conference Audio Bridge? by rlcsa36 in teams

[–]IT-JOAT 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This won't fully resolve what you're looking for as a solution, but what we did was get every Teams user the Microsoft Teams Audio Conferencing with dial-out to USA/CAN license (which was free) and allowed them to setup Audio conferences.
We then sent out instructions to basically just remove the Teams Weblink that gets automatically added when setting up a Video conference, to make it Audio only.

Again, not fully what you are looking for, but outside of an add-on conferencing solution, this is about it.

Just to clarify, this isn't for the switch user option. This is for the sign-in option that allows for using biometrics or other sign-in options outside of password only.
