Connection or device issues can sometimes affect call quality. Most calling problems are caused by network restrictions, especially Wi-Fi, firewall, or device settings.

This guide will help you quickly identify and fix the most common calling issues so you can get back to clear, reliable calls.


Before You Start (Quick Check)

Try these first — they resolve most issues:

  • Restart your device (turn it completely off for 30 seconds, then back on)

  • Restart your Wi-Fi router

If the issue continues, follow the steps below based on what you’re experiencing.

5. Delayed or Out-of-Sync Audio

What You May Notice

  • Conversations feel “out of sync”

Most Common Cause

How to Fix it

  1. Restart your router

  2. Test another internet source (hotspot or different Wi-Fi)

  4. Test on another device

  5. Check if the issue happens with only one client

6. Echo or Feedback During Calls

What You May Notice

  • Hearing your own voice

  • Echo after speaking

  • Feedback loops

Most Common Causes

  • Speakerphone enabled

  • Volume too high

  • Microphone too close to speakers

How to Fix it

  4. Use a headset/earphone

  5. Restart your device

7. Unable to receive Calls

What You May Notice

Most Common Causes

  • Notifications are turned off

  • Unstable or restricted network connection

How to Fix it

  3. Try a different internet connection (a mobile hotspot or another Wi-Fi network)

  4. Test on another device (desktop vs. mobile app)


General Network Troubleshooting (Recommended)

Improve Connection Stability

  • Restart your router (power off for 30 seconds)

  • Switch networks (Wi-Fi or hotspot)

  • Close all bandwidth-heavy apps or browser(video streaming, downloads)

  • Use a wired Ethernet connection when possible

Test Your Network

Router Optimization (optional)

  • Enable QoS (Quality of Service) in router settings

  • Set Voice / VoIP traffic to High or Highest Priority

  • Place your router:

    • In a central location

    • Elevated off the ground

    • Away from walls, metal objects, or electronics

When to Ask Your IT or Network Team for Help

Some networks restrict or block voice traffic, which can impact call quality or prevent calls from connecting. Please involve your IT or network team if you are using any of the following:

  • Company VPN

  • Office or corporate Wi-Fi

  • Public or shared Wi-Fi networks

If you are on one of these networks, it may be the source of the issue.

How to confirm

Try switching to a different network (for example, a mobile hotspot) and place a test call.

  • If the call works on the new network, the issue is very likely caused by firewall rules or network restrictions on the original network.

  • If the issue continues, further troubleshooting may be needed.
