Wi-Fi Calling
Wi-Fi Calling is a free feature for T-Mobile customers using
this device with the new ISIM card. Wi-Fi Calling is an
excellent solution for coverage issues in and around the
home or wherever cellular coverage is limited. Minutes used
while connected to the Wi-Fi network count against available
rate plan minutes.
The benefits of Wi-Fi Calling include the following:
•
Wi-Fi Calling provides a coverage option to improve upon your
current in-home coverage experience
•
Wi-Fi Calling works anywhere there is a Wi-Fi signal available
Important!
A new micro SIM card must be installed within the
device prior to using this feature. Wi-Fi must first
be active and communicating prior to launching
Wi-Fi Calling.
Note:
This feature is active by default. If you are in an active
Wi-Fi call and go out of range of your Wi-Fi, the call will
be dropped.
