Wifi Calling not working

[dannyw13]

Hi All

any chance someone can check my router, cant get wifi calling to enable on any phone in the house, i have seen it could be a simple setting in the router that needs changing

Thanks in advance

Hi @dannyw13 

The problem is that there is a disconnect between the router & the V1 266 due to incorrect firmware on the version 1. I have been waiting for some time to find out when the new firmware will be updated on them. I am currently using a V2 266, which works for WiFi calling no problem.

I will chase Talktalk up again, @Debbie-TalkTalk has been liaising with their Devices team to get me an answer.

Hi Keith

Yes it's v1,

3 lights on front of the extender

Thanks for the help 

Thanks

Dan

[KeithFrench]

No @dannyw13 the router will be on V206, which is new, the F266's firmware will be totally different.

Thanks for the screenshot. Is that the whole page? There should be 266 information displayed below the router's in that sub tab unless you are on Version 1 of the 266.

I keep asking, please can you confirm which version of 266 you have, this is vital to me being able to deal with your problem.

Hi Keith

will pm you

Can see the extender is on SG4K100206, so a prior version

Thanks

The most crucial thing is are you on the Version 1 266 (three lights on the front) or the version 2 (one light underneath).

You can log into it, you use the router's UI go to:-

Dashboard > See Wi-Fi Settings > Manage Advanced Settings > Wi-Fi 5Ghz gear icon >
Wi-Fi Mesh

In there get me a screenshot of the Extenders sub tab (PM this to me to preserve your privacy).

Hi Keith 

Router version SG4K100206

With the extender what is the default gateway to login is it the same as the router?, is have to connect seperately to find out but I assume it will be original firmware

Thanks @KeithFrench

Just retested this when connected to my V2 F266 & it worked fine. Which router firmware & F266 version are you using?

[dannyw13]

Hi Keith

It's a sagecom fast266

Thanks

Hi @dannyw13 

@Michelle-TalkTalk has asked me to help you with this. Which make/model of extender are you using?

[Michelle-TalkTalk]

Good morning,

@KeithFrench  have you come across this before?

Thanks

Hi Chris

Works in main router wifi, but when on the talktalk wifi extender upstairs it doesn't work, does the wifi extender setting also need changing?

Thanks 

Dan

[Chris-TalkTalk]

Yes, the change has gone through. When it convenient could you switch the router off and leave it off for at least 30 minutes then switch back on and retest. Please let us know how you get on

Thanks Chris, has it been done? Wifi calling still not showing up

It is definitely enabled in my home settings 

Thanks 

Dan

[Chris-TalkTalk]

OK, I'll do this, please don't switch off your router

Chris

[dannyw13]

Thanks for coming back Chris, yes please proceed 🙂 

[Chris-TalkTalk]

Hi dannyw13,

I can make a change that will hopefully fix the problem, is it OK to do it now, your internet connection will be down for a few minutes?
