Just within the city, doing paperwork from home instead of at a campus.
your IP will be the easy give away if they care to audit. a possible solution is to VPN to the campus and nat your traffic from a campus IP, but now we are getting into additional questionable action.
If they’re on their phone they should just make sure they don’t connect to their home WiFi or their campus WiFi on their phone during work hours. All anyone will see them connecting with then is their cell network IP, prolly just an ipv6 address, and there won’t ever be an obvious tell that they are in a specific location in town.
agreed. as long as the administrative requirement is not "all work done from office desk", and cellular carrier IP ranges are allowed for his specific services, a cellular connection from laptop (cuz tech reasons) works. OP just likely needs a reasonable cya excuse to make things smooth.
