WiFi calling in a area with no cell signal.

I have a Moto g4 . We have no cell signal at home , but we do have optic fiber for internet . Can I somehow use my  Moto g4 phone thru our internet to make calls . Moto g4 does not have a WiFi calling built in .

You can use a microcell. Also you can use Googe voice.

Microcell requires a postpaid Account to register the device.   ATT is sunsetting the microcell at end of 2018, so plan ahead.   You can pick up used on eBay.

We have pre paid Go phone , so I guess a micro cell probably won't work
then .

Prepaid has no access to wifi calling either.  Now you can use google voice and that will work

What do you mean "sunsetting the microcell" ? They won't be available, or they can't be used? Thanks

@dwbphoto  The microcell is no longer sold. (End of 2017) and ATT says they will not support after 2018.  I can’t imagine they will stop existing devices, but new activations might not be possible.  

Those of us with them are not happy about it.

Neither model, or just the older white one? Thanks

Microcell all together.  They also stopped tech support.
