Running version Microsoft Teams Version 1.3 (64-bit). I also disabled GPU acceleration in MS Teams to see if that helps.

Something about the video call that makes it kill the internet. 100MB/s transfer to and from the network. I did lots of speed tests with the new dock and it performs much better that the $40 hootoo crap Amazon dock. I even moved the USB-C power cable to use the second USB-C port on my laptop so that they power does not go through the dock. Still loses all connectivity after a short while in an MS Teams call. I updated my USB Realtek driver version from 10.38.117.2020 to. Brutal as we all are in this work from home scenario and depend on MS Teams to meet. I'm in a MS Teams call and the call just drops.

So now my Ethernet is plugged back into my new Startech dock. So that I could reduce all my dongles and dock to just one dock. So I ran in that configuration for a while with no issues. Because I wanted to have two external monitors and an external keyboard and mouse connected to my HP Spectre X360, I needed like 3 dongles, (Hootoo dock, USB-C to HDMI adapter and USB-A to Ethernet). So eventually, I just got a USB to Ethernet adapter and used that. Only way to get my network connection back would be to reboot. I would be on an MS Teams call and the call would just drop. I had the Ethernet cable plugged into a hootoo dock from amazon. USB 3.0 Docks that don't have a power input have been found not to affect this, as well as USB 3.0 - Ethernet adapters. Note 5 - Seems to only be affected by inputs of ethernet with Supply Charging Power. Note 4 - Surface Dock Firmware is up to date, as well as ethernet drivers, and Windows updates on the Surface Pro 4/5/6, and Surface laptop 3. Note 3 - This occurs on home and work connections, so we suspect it is not actually the connection but something happening with the DOCK itself. Those devices never have issues when going through wifi instead of a dock and ethernet connection. Note 2 - This only occurs on devices that are connecting through Surface Dock connections. Note 1 - This issue never happens when on WIFI, or not connected to a dock. Ethernet will not reconnected until either reseating ethernet cable. Scenario: When on a MS Teams Video Call - It will often crash the Ethernet connection, and then reconnect to a Wifi Connection. I've scoured the net, but haven't found a fix for this issue now, wondering if anyone can help with this. Having some issues here while using Microsoft Teams, and have been running into this issue for a while.
