Vault 2020 cooperation with inventor, bandwidth issues

[jen-sitecover]

I have learned that vault limits the use of inventor if the bandwidth between the local PC and the vault server is small.

Inventor becomes almost un-useable if the bandwidth are lower than 50 MBit/sec. This means that it is impossible to work via mobilephone, even if you have prepared your work by downloading the files....

The system requires some kind of pending between the vault server and inventor.

Autodesk should inform users about these limitations.

We have been using vault in low bandwidth situations for years.  Simply get your files, check them out.  Then log out of vault in Inventor.  When you are ready Log-in and check-in.  That said I rarely use this work flow anymore as most connections are plenty fast.  I have 20 Mbit/sec at home and never have an issue.
