I'm currently in Italy with an Oppo A78 5g, and Wifi calling is not working. Phone is in flight mode with wifi turned on. Wifi is from a fibre connected router. I've checked under the sim settings and Wifi calling is on. Wifi calling works fine when in NZ.
Any ideas on what i can do/check to get this working?

@aaristotle Have you tried another Wi-Fi connection maybe it is blocked?

I connected to Wi-Fi in one location and Wi-Fi calling did not work and this was cause some ports were blocked by IT

I tried it initially on wifi access at a Singapore airport lounge but put that down to port blocking. Now staying in an apartment with a residential fibre connection. Also tried from a hotspot on another phone that has data roaming which also didn't work.
Looking at other threads on here overseas wifi calling seems to have worked successfully in most cases.

I also recall that wifi calling worked successfully when we were in Tasmania a few months ago.

Try turning W-Fi calling off and back on again

Yes, it will be something local - we do not block Wifi Calling from overseas.
