How do I force wifi preferred for wifi calling?
PracticalNihili

Some background here, I live in a basement and because of this the cellphone coverage is pretty spotty at best.  I had constant problems with slow text messages and dropped calls.

It worked great until I recently installed a system update and now the Wifi calling is stuck on Mobile preferred as illustrated below:

I even went to the settings and explicitly set it to Wifi Preferred like so:

And yet I still can't force it to use Wifi calling.  Because of this now every time I get home I have to turn mobile data off.  And vice versa before leaving home I have to turn mobile data back on.  This is really annoying and I would appreciate any assistance with this issue.

Thank you in advance!
