AT&T WiFi calling

[jeremyds45]

So those with an AT&T Note 5, when you turn on WiFi calling, does the WiFi calling icon show up in the notification bar? How else can you tell for sure if you're on WiFi calling? When my phone first updated to marshmallow, and I used wifi calling it showed the icon in the notification bar, however that's been a while and I haven't used it and just tried using it today and it shows that it is on but does not show the icon. Wondering if that happened with an update or something is going on with my phone?

Edit - so according to AT&T's website, Wifi calling is only used when the network is very weak or if there is no signal, here in the US that is, and the icons will display when being used. However when overseas it will work as soon as you connect to WiFi and have WiFi calling turned on.

When my WiFi calling is turned on, it shows the icon, a modified WiFi icon.

Are you in a poor signal area for AT&T?

Yes, with AT&T, I have multiple (patchy) areas with poor reception.

AH, ok that makes you. That is probably why yours shows the WiFi calling active, because of the poor signal.
