Wifi calling

We live in the sticks and have lousy 3g/4g coverage. We have decent FTTC fixed line broadband (thank you Uno) so wifi calling seems the obvious answer. Unfortunately I have been totally unable to make this work with either 3 or EE. My 'phone is a Cubot P30 running Android 9 and wifi calling is enabled for both providers. My router is ex BT running OpenWRT ver 18.06 and I believe it is correctly configured for ipsec etc.
Two questions really -
1. Anyone have any suggestions for the kit I already have, or know of any problems with it.
2. Anyone using wifi calling and have known working kit. I'm happy to change either or both but prefer to keep the cost down as far as possible. The 'phone must be Android.

Thanks,
Colin
 
You’d be better off buying your phone directly from the network. As long as they say it supports WiFi calling it’ll do just fine.

Generic Android devices sometimes just won’t do VoLTE or WiFi calling it bought from elsewhere. I don’t know whether it’s the networks or the phones that are the issue. Alternative is an iPhone, they don’t have these kind of issues.
 
@pessimist - might be an obvious thing to add but the Cubot isn't on EE's list of supported devices.. May be worth giving them a call and seeing if that matters though.
