My web browser can't not access Bing.com or Bing Maps and Maps Visualization in Power BI Desktop doesn't work.   Please help me another way to create map visualization without access Bing.Com...

    Hi TrucNguyen90,Power bi map visual is based on bing map engine so you need to keep the connection to the bing map service.
    For your scenario, I'd like to suggest you try or use other types of map visual(e.g. ArcGIS map) if your network has blocked the request to Bing services.

TrucNguyen90 ArcGIS is 3rd party visual and some of its features are paid, but it has a lot of features and sometimes I find it overkill but maybe it is the right fit for you, but do pay attention not all the features are free
