What is the size of your home? Sq Ft?
What is the distance between the router and satellite(s)? 30 feet is recommended in between them to begin with depending upon building materials when wirelessly connected.

Hi FURRYe38 , this problem occurs even when I'm right next to the main Orbi router, so it's not an issue with my home size, interference, etc. Remember that my iPhone thinks that WiFi calling works. A WiFi call works as expected for about 10 secs, after which the person on the other end can't hear me but I can hear them. At this point, the iPhone still thinks WiFi calling works because it continues to display "Sprint Wi-Fi". So something happens after 10 seconds that cause the problem where the caller can't hear me.
Please let us know if the other suggestions help. Please give feedback to questions presented, regardless of relavance. Anything is possible when it comes to wifi.
Does this happen with other phones and wifi calling?
