1. If Microsoft Teams desktop client is not working, try accessing the web client. You can
access it from https://teams.microsoft.com
2. If the web client is also not working, try to sign in using smartphone.
3. In case Microsoft Teams is working on your smartphone/Mobile, it is most likely a client-
specific issue.
4. In case the sign-in issue persists in your smartphone app as well, verify health status
under https://portal.office.com Check the Office 365 Admin Portal for any service-
related updates.
5. Check your Windows credentials match with your Office 365 credentials.
6. Disable VPN client and browser VPN extensions to establish a connection.
7. Make sure the time and date on your system is correct. Secure sites may refuse any
suspicious connection from your computer.

Teams conducts most of its network communication over port TCP 443 (HTTPS) to the Office
365 services. However, there are a few additional TCP and UDP ports that may be necessary,
depending on the type of activity being performed. For current network requirements, see
the Office 365 URL and IP address ranges page at https://docs.microsoft.com/en-
us/office365/enterprise/urls-and-ip-address-ranges.

The Teams desktop application must be able to communicate with the Office 365 identity
platform for authentication, the Exchange endpoints for calendaring, and SharePoint Online for
file collaboration. Additionally, if other Office 365 services are consumed from within the Teams
desktop client (such as Stream or Planner), computers will need to be able to reach those
endpoints as well. Finally, if any third-party bots, connectors, or plugins are deployed, the
Teams client will need to communicate with the networks providing those services.

Microsoft support typically uses the free Fiddler (http://www.telerik.com/fiddler)


and Wireshark (http://www.wireshark.org) tools, as well as the browser's built-in Developer
Tools, when troubleshooting network communications issues.

MICROSOFT TEAMS MOBILE CLIENT

When you are troubleshooting Teams mobile client issues , you should first restart the client. If
the issue does not resolve, the next step is to collect Teams mobile client logs and analyze them
to find the issue.
To collect Teams mobile client logs, follow these steps:
1. Open the Microsoft Teams app on your iOS device/android. Then click the client icon
and then Settings.
2. Click the Report an Issue option, as shown in Figure 
Figure 6-12 Teams mobile app option for reporting an issue

Your e-mail program will open with a log.txt attachment file, as shown in Figure 6-13. Send the
log to Level3 (IO_Collab_Skype Queue or any other e-mail address. (The default e-mail address
is Microsoft’s.)
Multiple Users Unable to login to MS teams.
Login to https://portal.office.com

Select Admin  Health service Health


And confirm if there are any outstanding notification from MS regarding Teams.

Monitor service health issues

When investigating Teams issues, another valuable tool is the Microsoft 365 Service Health
dashboard, with which you can view the status of the services in your tenant. To view the
dashboard, follow these steps:

1. Navigate to the Microsoft 365 Admin Center (https://admin.microsoft.com),


expand Health, and select Service health:
2. For services that display advisories or incidents, you can select
the Advisory or Incident link next to the service or expand
the Incidents or Advisories menu option to display relevant events.
2. If an event has a Show details link, you can click on it to review more verbose details:

Remember, since Teams connects to many Microsoft 365 services, it's important to check the
service health of other connected services, such as SharePoint Online and Exchange Online,
when investigating issues that manifest themselves in Microsoft Teams. 

If no issues reported, Route the ticket to Level3 team.

Network performance

While troubleshooting, you may discover that communication seems to be occurring over the
necessary ports but is erratic or you are experiencing performance issues. To aid with this,
Microsoft has released the Network Testing Companion, a network diagnostic tool that helps
to diagnose and troubleshoot voice quality issues.

The tool is available from the PowerShell gallery


at https://www.powershellgallery.com/packages/NetworkTestingCompanion/1.5.4. and has a
separate installation and user guide available at https://github.com/MicrosoftDocs/OfficeDocs-
SkypeForBusiness/blob/live/Teams/downloads/network-testing-companion.zip?raw=true.
The Network Testing Companion is most useful when it's used in conjunction with other
networking tools while trying to determine call quality issues.

Troubleshooting audio in Microsoft Teams


Make sure you're not on mute

In your call, take a look at the microphone button, if there's line through the microphone then
you are currently on mute (silenced), click the button to unmute yourself.

Is there a line through your microphone icon? Then you're on mute - click it to unmute
yourself!

This icon is good! You're not on mute.

Quick tip: You can also press Ctrl + Shift + M on your keyboard to mute/unmute.
Select the right audio device for the call

In your call, in the call controls bar, click the 'More Actions' button  , from the menu select
the 'Show device settings' item. 'Device settings' will open in a sidebar will to the right, in this
sidebar you can choose your preferred devices for audio and video.

Change your default mic, speaker, or camera

To select the mic, speaker, and camera you want Teams to use for calls and meetings, click your
profile picture at the top of Teams, then Settings > Devices. 

Under Audio devices, pick the speaker and mic you want Teams to use by default. 

Under Camera, select the camera you want Teams to use, and see a preview of that camera's
video. 

If you have multiple certified devices connected to your computer, you can set one as
your secondary ringer, which means it'll ring when a call comes in. Answer incoming calls on
any device—not just the ones that ring.
Make a test call

To make a test call, select your profile picture, then Settings > Devices. 

Choose Make a test call under Audio devices. 

In a test call, you'll see how your mic, speaker, and camera are working. Follow the instructions
from Test Call Bot and record a short message. The message will play back for you. After that,
you'll get a summary of the test call, and you can go to your device settings to make changes. 

Choose preferred audio device with the 'Audio devices' drop down list, this will preselect the
accompanying speaker and microphone. Alternatively, you can configure the speaker and
microphone individually.
Look at your device's mute buttons

If you're working on a device like a laptop, it might have a dedicated mute button for the
speakers and microphone, on the keyboard or elsewhere.

Look for these buttons on your device and make sure you are not on mute.

Using a headset? That might also be on mute or needs to change modes

If you're using a headset that has it's own mute/unmute buttons, double-check that it's not
muted. Some headsets also come with multiple modes and/or channel, double-check that you
are using the right one.
Check your headset's user manual to identify the exact location of this button.

This is an example of a Lenovo laptop. These buttons may be in a different location on your
device.

For Auido/Video Quality issue, capture below logs.

Media Stack Logs

Media stack logs have information related to media connectivity.


 For Windows, you can find these logs at %appdata%\Microsoft\Teams\media-stack (see
Figure 6-11).
Figure 6-11 Teams Media stack logs
