Indoor/outdoor

[larypie]

Indoors I have a decent 4G signal showing on my phone - 3-4 bars. But when I call a number (eg my landline) the call just times out. Going outdoors with the same or fewer bars, the call goes through.

I do get emails and messages coming through OK.

Wi-fi calling is turned on, but I still cant make a call when indoors. My Wi-fi is excellent.

The phone is a Cubot Nova which is a bit old, but works well outdoors..

Is there any reason for this?

Hi @larypie

Welcome to our community and thanks for taking the time to post.

I'm sorry you're having trouble and I'd love to help if I can. Have you had this phone for a while? If so is it only recently you've started having trouble making calls indoors?

You mention being able to access mobile data, does this include doing so whilst on voice calls?

If you have coverage indicated, the on-screen bars are only a rough guide and shouldn't be the be-all-and-end-all. But if you're getting a stronger indicated service indoors, this suggests a very particular set of circumstances.

Knowing if this is a recent issue, and whether you can use mobile data whilst on calls, will help ascertain if those apply.
