Wi-Fi Calling not working

If you're having trouble using Wi-Fi Calling on Deco, the following suggestions would help.

Firstly, Some typical problem descriptions:

1. If I connect with the internet provider router, it works perfectly, but I couldn't make wi-fi calls when connecting to Deco.

2. Every time I get a call or make a call whilst using WiFi calling the call drops out after a couple of seconds same for the rest of the family.

3. The call won't switch to WiFi calling from cellular and it will drop the call when it tries to switch.

4. The outbound voice on my WiFi calls would become garbled and unintelligible periodically for several minutes at a time.

So basically, there are two types of feedback: Wi-Fi Calling either doesn't work or The connection quality of Wi-Fi Calling is poor/intermittent.
