Pfsense with Microsof Teams
-
Hi Everyone,
I'm new to pfsense and I'm using Microsoft Teams to communicate for meetings. The problem is when I go to meetings I got video and voice unstable cutting in and out.
There were 29 people using the MS Teams with 100mbps connection. What should I do to eleminate this issue?
Any suggestion is appriciated. -

Hi,
This will be the starting point for proper operation:
https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoftteams/prepare-network29 participants at 100mbps hmmmm (host) ???, so I would watch the bandwidth usage at full load ...
Status / monitoring+++edit:
what is your ISP connection method?
are you the MS Team host?
do you have WiFi on your network?
QoS? -

By any chance, you're not running a cloud based bitcoin cracker in the background ?More serious :
pfSense could be used on a POTS modem based 33.6 kbits land line. Video wouldn't work then - sound would be bad.
The very same pfSense can be used to connect an entire "1000 employees" company over a 10 Gig line.Some factors :
The hardware you use. This includes your own device, and wifi AP if you use them.
The settings you use (the default settings doesn't limit you at all).
The interconnections you use - your LAN's and WAN's.So, make up the complete list - and you won't be needing us to find your answer.

I've had no trouble using Netgate with Microsoft Teams, but I'm using a wired connection
I did notice something interesting though. I had some older network cable and was getting an orange light on my D-link switch, meaning it was connecting at 100 mbps. I made up a new cable which had thicker gage copper, and I got a green light indicating a 1000 mbps. Upgrading the cable did make a difference for me.

Hi. I was just wondering if you were able to implement your idea? A very interesting version of implementing an ordinary project.
