We’ve tried to troubleshoot this, even buying our own Netgear dual band cable modem (C3700-100NAS). What tends to correct it is if I...

    Viber: on another call

    My bf says his wifi is not very good, and randomly we will get disconnected suddenly on VIBER, but it says "on another call" while it says connection is poor. Is it possible VIBER says on another call when the wifi is bad? Or is he actually on another call?

    iPhone Verizon wifi calling now offered on ios 9.3?

    I am most anxious to be able to get wifi calling (no cell service at home / Adirondacks). On new beta version of IOS 9.3, I do not see "wifi calling" in settings where I would expect it to be: settings >phone > wifi calling. Both Verizon and Apple help desks had no answer. Any help??

There is a yellow dot preceding the "Wi-Fi / Self-Assigned IP"...
