So Microsoft Teams is designed to determine the caller’s location based on the 
BSSID:

https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoftteams/configure-dynamic-emergency-calling#supported-clients

Unfortunately, despite their documentation stating that it works, we’ve found 
it’s only functional on Windows laptops. We have a ticket open regarding the 
other operating systems. Until that’s ironed out, our Teams deployment is on 
hold.

I’d love to talk to others that have crossed this bridge, particularly on Teams!

Subject: [WIRELESS-LAN] Wi-Fi Calling - Promoting - Manual E911 Address required
I was curious how others have handled Wi-Fi Calling in their environments for 
BYOD/personal devices? Such as whether they promote, advertise, or just make a 
KB Article available on their public repositories. This has come up a couple 
times in the past (one just this past week) about “dead zone” locations for 
Cellular. My biggest concern is the fact the Wi-Fi Calling requires manually 
entering the E911 Address information – and the expectation that this address 
must be updated constantly via manual methods (which won’t happen) – such as 
going home and to work every day (not even taking into account moving about 
campus).
