CAX 80 / WIFI calling issues
Just recently upgraded from the Netgear C6220 to the CAX80. I noticed that the WIFI calling feature on my Samsung Note 10 Plus is no longer working. I cannot send or receive calls/texts over WIFI...

After 7 months of painful troubleshooting we have finally found the fix to wifi calling.
It seems the culprit was "ipsec alg". The service is not found on the official firmware and therefore cannot be disabled.
For everyone with the issue:
You must contact netgear support and explain the wifi calling issues and that you'd like to try the beta firmware with the ipsec alg feature. Currently they do not have plans to release it publicly. Not sure why.

I have same issue. No wifi calling since day one. I have zero reception at home and made this purchase to "save" from leasing Xfinity modem. But now regretting decision. Have gone through all those steps mentioned earlier and no solution either. Now I'm past my return window. Very disappointed with this expensive defective product.
