WiFi calling and texting issues since upgrade
Ever since we upgraded our Xfinity service to 1000 Mbps and equipment to the xFi advanced gateway (XB7), we have been having issues with our AT&T wireless phones using WiFi calling and SMS. We cannot send SMS text messages or make/receive calls.
We did not have any issues with Wi-Fi calling with our previous 400Mbps or 800Mbps plans using our xFi wireless gateway (XB3).
We have to toggle our Airplane mode on/off in order to restore our call/text service, and even then it only lasts a few minutes before getting shut down again.
How can we fix this issue? I have not found any resolutions posted to the xFinity forums or anywhere else. I have tried turning off Advanced Security, enabling Port Forwarding per AT&T's recommendations, and connecting directly to the gateway Wi-Fi and local xFinity hotspot (as opposed to the mesh Wi-Fi network).
Some relevant info:
Phones: Pixel 7 (mine) and iPhone SE 2020 (wife's)
Network: TP Link Deco M5 wireless mesh system
This was not an issue until upgrade speed/equipment to 1000Mb/XB7
Thanks
