Re: Plusnet mobile!

OK, I stand corrected.

But it makes no sense then that he has to go outside to use it at all sensibly, and it still drops out?

In their house, with presumably no-one else using it, how could that happen?

Unless 23Prince actually lives at home, because his downloads of currently claimed 16GB per month on average would be the problem.

Then I'm guessing there's something wrong with his set up. I use EE wifi calling, and it works a treat with my 5S, even when the connection it is dialling out over is ADSL.

I've got wifi calling enabled and I even used it on the virgin train wifi without any issues.

No issues for me and it falls back onto VOLTE when I go out of wifi range.

Yes, but all I'm querying, because it sounds very strange, is this post. (And the follow-ups to my query of course).

It seems to me there is either something killing the FTTC, but see my post about 23Prince's usage (typo in it - 16TB per month, not 16GB), if he lives with his father, or the wifi to that FTTC simply isn't working. Having to go outside suggests perhaps the latter.

Yep very odd. We download over 2Tb a month and I use it on my FTTC whilst others stream Netflix 4K and have Skype calls.

I had issues on Westfield WiFi a few times and in Heathrow airport.

Generally I do only turn on wifi calling when I struggle with service though, I generally then forget to disable it for a few weeks until it causes me bother i.e. at Westfield or somewhere and then I disable it.

I use wifi calling whilst I am at work as we get no signal inside the building. It has always seemed to work just fine for both calls and texts. And because it is turned on it also uses it by default when I am at home and is fine there too - don't do much in the way of mobile calling but when I do I have never had an issue.

In reply to a post by baby_frogmella:
Nothing to do with EU roaming, I have successfully used EE wifi calling in Chile, Qatar and New Zealand since April 2015 when WC first went live on iOS. This is on an EE account where overseas roaming is barred smile


I really don't know - He can use his allowance in the EU same as the UK is all I do know for sure. tongue

16GB per month is very small amount smile - and no I live 50 miles away.

I guess using the [censored] plusnet router his wifi range is rubbish - as it's only a 3 bed bungalow.

Although, that said it's possible he is maxing his wifi out and that's the problem. He does tend to download a lot in the day rather than at night and he only has 21mbps FTTC so, yes.. good point!

Errmmmmm. That 16GB was a typo as I'm sure you know, seeing as I was quoting one of your boasts.

16TB.
