Thanks Henrik, I'll test this UA in a few hours - I used "Teams Phone Fix" addon to Firefox, but it suddenly stopped working. Microsoft deploys its apps partially - I can have some version, the person sitting next to me - the other... and of course - they can work differently :) Got the "User Agent Switcher" as well, beacuse O365 webmail looks like the old Squirrelmail using the original Firefox UA (I suspect they have some expressions looking for Mac, Linux and Windows - FreeBSD is out of the league). The easiest way to confirm web rendering depends on UA is to observe Cam, Mic and "Download App" icons - one time they are grey, the other both are active or one only :) On Windows there is an option to make a Test Call within the Settings menu - I haven't seen that on "spoofed" browser yet. --=20 regards, Maciej Suszko. --3P1piRTNfJRhy1xGZ2vij83UkwzfEpz2d-- --GuVxwjEWH5fYKLKPyXPjUoydHNBFeI0OK Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name="signature.asc" Content-Description: OpenPGP digital signature Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="signature.asc" -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iQEzBAEBCAAdFiEEIoJrn47KEjxeB5CF95cXLotfKhkFAl60i5UACgkQ95cXLotf Khlgbwf+M/iuO+i46p3cCsGCsTy3EJ762/ji9ZgzfbFxt2/LgOrlYWQVXRrsawZ5 +nlDqpLcM1BaGsvlE99jSB7xCyqcAo7qYugvNstpHXVYazNxc4jWQLzdc+HhyZxB IsSG2Iw+B8bj0RsMu5oh+xpKOuYT2Ku5R5/GUoYZqEnYoh+Ux9uDMGRgwxDtE1Hd 1JVhbtOUvhClLNH7vTwvM/cALu0Jya31+qPNODv3C6hMva+dQLGDXqOJ3CAc5Y9F bErkfozGEqXYQRopWJdPvGP1PfkJqMnOD8hYl8KUQB81NVrfLeklXSMEms8PblBH u0KxfOgMXqMntKYTqikHwEhxeklwTQ== =66Hi -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --GuVxwjEWH5fYKLKPyXPjUoydHNBFeI0OK--
