Hello and thanks to everyone that contributed to this post.

I managed to find the issue. It was indeed related to previously used Skype for Business. When a SFB user is created, a certain attributes are added. And those stay until they change (for example if user migration are used ((didnt work for us since SFB servers were deleted)) or until they are removed.

What happened was there was a conflict with those attributes. Teams "thought" that we still use SFB due to these previous SFB msRTC attributes. Once removed after a while External connectivity appeared.

Hello Rob Ellis , thank you for the reply.

Synced users show up with onmicrosoft.com. After they show up we changed the suffix and add the licenses.

We made a test account on whom we left the default suffix, it does not work aswell.

I assume you changed the suffix in on-premises AD, then waited for another sync?

Rob Ellis Suffix on our AD is .local, we left it like that. Should that be changed aswell?
