If you live in an apartment building there might be many different wireless networks (routers) detected by your USB adapter so be sure to know what the name of yours is. All the calls you make and messages you send through Wi-Fi calling appear as normal in your usual messages app and call logs.The icon in your notification bar might change to a small phone receiver with a Wi-Fi or VoLTE (short for voice over LTE) icon above it, but, apart from that, you shouldn’t notice any difference between Wi-Fi calls and regular calls through your mobile network.Bear in mind though, while Wi-Fi calling should be capable of handing over to the network if you move out of range of the Wi-Fi router, there’s a chance it will pause or drop the call.
WiFi-enabled devices communicate with one another by sending and receiving radio waves, a type of electromagnetic radiation with wavelengths in the electromagnetic spectrum longer than infrared light.
