One thing I noticed as well with my iphone and network system. SMS seems to not work or be sent over the wifi protocols. I saw this as I have a in home microcell device due to low cell signals here at home. One time I had it the microcell OFF and was attempting to send texts thru the phone and they were not getting out. After I disabled the wifi radio on my phone, the texts went out and were delievered. I believe this is a limitation of the wifi calling and how SMS messages are handled on the phones.
