PaulAndrew We have the same problem when running M365 network connectivity manual tests from home office on a corporate laptop with VPN with split tunnelling enabled for M365 per MS proxy PAC files instructions as compared to using a personal device on the same home networking. The network path in the M365 report for those two scenarios is very similar but the tests run from corporate laptop shows egress as Vancouver, BC even though we are in Ottawa, ON.
