Wifi Calling

[lasal93]

I have been dropping calls at home the last few weeks. I turned on wifi calling and picked cellular preferred. Lost the call. Switched to wifi calling preferred. When I walk in the door and it is supposed to transition to wifi, it drops the call. Is this normal for wifi calling?

I have the lte booster on the way.

T-Mobile.

When I had T-Mobile (last year) it didn't support wifi to cellular (and reverse) transitions. Are you sure they do now?

Who does support transition: Project Fi.

Not at all. I just assumed it did. Thanks for the info...including about Project Fi.

I'm on T-Mo. No, my handset doesn't hand off calls between WiFi and cellular.

How is the reception for wifi calling on your 5X's? I have good internet speed and I get complaints of the robotic voice effect.

I use the T-Mo cellspot. It's the T-Mobile wireless router. It prioritizes WiFi calling. No problems with call quality.

I haven't had issues on my end and callers haven't said anything bad about my voice quality. But, a lot will depend on the quality of the wifi connection.

I turned on wifi calling last night and could not receive a call. I could make them but not receive them. Perhaps I just have a bad phone. Internet has over 50mbps download speeds.

Google Hangouts wifi calling works fine but my phone's wifi calling still doesn't work. Going to stick with Google Hangouts but that does not help receiving calls unless I would give out my google voice number.

Firewalls and filters applied by your provider can break the service.

Some VPN services also disrupt WiFi calling.
