Had a typo - it is a Hitron CODA -45.
Firmware is V2.7.4.24.
House is ranch style approximately 2,900 sf.
Satellites are 40 and 45 feet from ORBI.
Where do I find SIP ALG?
Armor, Parental Controls and Traffic are off. Where do I find IPv6?
Either 20/40 coexistence is on or off. No option for 40.
Preamble reset from automatic to short.
Private wifi - off and iCloud Relay is off.
Get back to me with the 2 questions and anything else I should do.
Router has been rebooted.

There will be a number behind the 45, 45##.

You might consider updating FW:
House is ranch style approximately 2,900 sf.
For that size of home, you might consider turning OFF one RBS. Having too many can cause problems:
Might turn off both RBS to test to see if phone calls come thru or not with just the RBR alone.

Where do I find SIP ALG?
Under Advanced tab/Setup/WAN setup on the RBRs web page.
Armor, Parental Controls and Traffic are off. Where do I find IPv6?
Under Advanced tab/Advanced/IPv6. It maybe already disabled.
Either 20/40 coexistence is on or off. No option for 40.
Uncheck the check box next to this and apply sets 40Mhz.

No additional numbers after CODA -45.
When i use the app on my phone, it says there are no updates available at this time.
Turned SIP ALG off.
IPv6 is disabled.
Unchecked box for 20/40 coexistence.

Walls and kitchen appliances seemed to effect the wifi signal at each end of the house so I installed satellites to get better wifi signal at those ends of the house.
We have made a number of changes. How do the changes that have been improve the "hand shake" between cellular calls and wifi calling?

The newer FW needs to be applied manually.
Having more signal in a closer area can cause problem and noise on the phone and could effect how the phone operates on wifi and the handling of incoming calls via wifi.
You might run a test with all RBS turned off and have someone call you and see if the phone call comes in normally or doesn't.

Firmware is now V2.7.5.4
I will disconnect both satellites.
How do check signal strength at each end of the house to see if RBR50 is providing a strong signal?
I really appreciate you help and hope this allows us to receive incoming calls via wifi. Don't have a problem with outbound calls.
