Status:Open Resolved:
Product:OS X Product Version:Mac OS X 10.11.5 (15F34)
Classification:Serious Bug Reproducible:Sometimes
 
Summary:
I’ve been at my iMac more than usual lately and have been trying to make phone calls. It’s supposed to be setup using Wi-Fi calling, but it keeps saying “using iPhone” and no audio comes through.

Steps to Reproduce:
Not sure

Expected Results:
Once I turn on Wi-Fi calling, it stays on

Actual Results:
It turns itself off sporadically, reverting to using my iPhone for calls, which then don’t go through

Regression:


Notes:
I’m not sure what’s triggering it, but if I turn off wi-fi calling to my iMac from my iPhone’s settings and then turn it back on from the FaceTime preferences on the iMac, it works again using Wi-Fi calling for a while. I can’t tell what triggers it to stop working.
