0365 Outlook Connection while traveling. Only works on VPN
Hello
I am a home USA O365 subscription user. I'm currently traveling to the UK and the Outlook App won't connect on my Mac. For testing I connected to my Express VPN and surprise surprise it worked!
What could be just stopping it working over the internet?
Thanks
Phil

- Is this happening to a particular network over there or any connection in UK?
adam deltinger It has started working! Maybe it was just taking time for DNS to update?
- Great to hear!
adam deltinger To be fair I haven't been any to test any other locations yet. This is open Guest Wi-Fi at my office. What's interesting is I just ran some other tests such as syncing files to one drive and that worked fine. Just Outlook.
