This isn't actually a feature of a router but rather of the client device itself.  Wifi calling it a feature you setup in your phone settings,  typically under the celluar menu.

@Carl 

Thanks for responding but I already have wifi calling activated and was using it.  But it stopped working when I changed routers.

@Grammyof5 

 

What phone or phone system are you using that supports WIFI calling?

 

The set up for WIFI calling is done on the phone. The router is just supplying the WIFI connection.

If you changed routers, if it doesn't have the SAME 'everything' as the old router, the phone can't connect. 'Everything' means just that, SSID, P/W, Security, and Channel used.

 

Depending on the phone make/model, you should also be able to 'forget' the old Network. For instance, on an iPhone, go to Settings, WiFi. You'll see all the Networks you can connect to, and on the right side a blue circle with an I in it, Select that and you can 'FORGET THIS NETWORK',  Might need to do that.

That FAQ is not on the US website.  That is why the link did not work.  I will look into that but in the meantime you can use this link instead

@ArcherC8 We have a Samsung Note 9 and Note 5.  They were both working fine before I installed this new router.

@Grammyof5 

Do the devices see the SSID?

 

Do other devices connect to that SSID?

 

There is a setting in the router not to allow new devices to connect, is that OFF?

 

Do you have the problem both SSID's and even the Guest network?
