Not sure if this topic should be under Telco Talk or networking.

Last week DiGi upgraded service with VoLTE, on handphone it showed the icon.
I have Huawei E5186 router that supports VoLTE, I search in internet but can't find info about setting up VoLTE on router, not even sure if it is automatically setup or what.

Connect normal phone to the RJ11 port the dial tone is engaged dial tone not working.
If set to 3G or Auto then can make call, but it is not VoLTE just normal call, and at LTE when make call it will drop to 3G and come back to LTE after the call, with this the ping and speed is haywire.

Expert please advise

Bro u manage to get VoLTE working on E5186s-22? I am using the exactly same router. But your screenshot is handphone ?

The router has a RJ11 phone jack to connect to simple house telephone using telephone cable.

Just now i asked seller, he said Huawei never officially stated that E5186 supports VoLTE
In the internet all articles about this router says VoLTE is supported, but noone tested it.
The router i received is with Huawei logo not other Telco logo.

oic, the VoLTE activated message is in sms? what did you do to activate that or it is done automatically.
that sms received after inserting the sim into router or before that already got , i see the date is yesterday.

I also yesterday dapat digi 150 infinite simcard, 2 sim i bought. insert straight into router but no sms ler
may i know your Software version? mine is 21.306.01.00.00

To do VoLTE call use plug in normal phone and make call. make sure network is set to "4G only" otherwise it will do normal voice call.

This infinite plan does not support torrent, can use VPN to overcome but speed slow ler...

hmm... the message i received is only asking me to download digi apps. thats all.
Can try make VoLTE call using normal telephone? set network to "4G only".

DiGi. the place i stay only has LTE not LTE-A.
on my handphone i can see the VoLTE icon, so this place sure support VoLTE.

haha... set auto it will drop to 3G to make call so the speed jadi giler. After making call it will come back to 4G again. Supposed to just call like that i think... in internet there is no single guide on how to do VoLTE call so i assume it is just simple call using telephone.

No... that it the way it is supposed to work, the router will handle the VoLTE and provide telephone assess to wired and wired-dect handsets. Seems like in this world at the moment only 1 router by Netgear is able to do that, if this Huawei E5186 is proven not supporting VoLTE. I search and can't find any official statement from Huawei saying support VoLTE, only from seller website and noone has actually tested it work.

RM865 through Lelong. I bought 3 of them running 3 Infinite 150 at 3 locations. Earlier I thought of want to save money and bought 3pcs TP-Link MR200 and ended up like sh*t performance and poor wireless connectivity, have to throw aside wasting $$$.

I hate Huawei for extremely little setting options and never have any official firmware update, however they have the best 3g/4g performance. Under same environment, E5186 max speed is 25% higher than MR200 and ping is more stable, MR200 has spikes (even with LAN). For wireless, MR200 from time to time has high ping between device and router itself, tested in place without neighbourhood wireless interference.

This is useful to me. with the DiGI Infinity plan, i can use this to connect to my office phone PBX system. This can save a few hundreds per month compared to Telekom line.

I have tested 3G with PBX system, but not this model but an older Huawei router.
Basically if 3G with E5186 it will definitely work on PBX. VoLTE yet to try, but E5186 seems not supporting this feature.
