Most of the tests require the application to be run. There are two parts to the Microsoft 365 network connectivity test: the web site and a downloadable Windows client application that runs advanced network connectivity tests. We rely on the user to launch the client application and they must also have. Next, we start the download of the advanced tests client application. Download the advanced tests client application When these tests are completed, we show them on the map and in the details tab where they can be viewed before the next step.

JavaScript testsĪfter office location identification, we run a TCP latency test in JavaScript and we request data from the service about in-use and recommended Microsoft 365 service front door servers. It's not necessary to identify the location more accurately than the building to measure network performance. If you detect the office location, the tool requests the latitude and longitude from the web browser and limits the accuracy to 300 meters by 300 meters before use.

You can type in your location by city, state, and country or choose to have it detected for you. When you click the Run test button, we show the running test page and identify the office location. What happens at each test step Office location identification We recommend that these insights be used together where networking quality status can be assessed for each office location in the Microsoft 365 Admin Center and more specifics can be found after deployment of testing based on the Microsoft 365 connectivity test. The Microsoft 365 connectivity test can help to identify the root cause of that problem and provide a targeted performance improvement action.

Network insights in the Microsoft 365 Admin Center will show that there's a networking problem at a specific office location. In-product testing is limited, and running tests local to the user collects more data resulting in deeper insights. In comparison, network insights from the Microsoft 365 network connectivity test are run locally in the tool. Network insights in the Microsoft 365 Admin Center are based on regular in-product measurements for your Microsoft 365 tenant, aggregated each day. The network connectivity test tool supports tenants in WW Commercial but not GCC Moderate, GCC High, DoD or China.
