Information on switching from Rainbow to Teams

Automatic when signing in to Teams; no further action required

Yes

Any device on which Teams runs – either as an app (desktop or mobile) or via a browser.

If you are on campus, your computer will use the KIT network to access the internet.
Your smartphone with the Teams app should then be connected to the KIT Wi-Fi.
If you are working from home, both your computer and your smartphone should be connected to your own Wi-Fi network.
In these cases, there are no charges, as the flat-rate data allowance from your internet contract is used.
If no Wi-Fi is available on your smartphone, these connections will use the mobile data on your SIM card.
Please ensure that your mobile data is routed via a KIT SIM card so that you do not incur any costs yourself.
