WhatsApp Calling not working after iOS14 Update

After update to iOS 14, I have run into 2 big issues:

  1. WhatsApp Calling feature does not work, normal messaging works but the Video / Audio Calling is not working. It keeps asking me to switch from 4G to WIFI but none of them work. Everything was working fine before the update. I have re-installed WhatsApp, re-installed iTunes but still nothing works
  2. Unable to take backup on my laptop after the update. It just hangs and does nothing.. I have left for 5-6 hrs but still does not do a full backup on laptop. Previously it took 20 min at max.


Has anyone faced this issue? I can't roll back to the last saved backup on laptop as I deleted it by mistake. I dont want to pay Apple hence dont use iCloud for backup

Yes I’m also having problems with WhatsApp calling on my device with iOS 14. I have gigabit fiber optic at home and 2 Wi-Fi access points hardwired into a gigabit Ethernet network. However, if I try to make a WhatsApp call I see WhatsApp says the Wifi connection is “poor” and it is switching to cellular for better signal. This causes to call quality to plummet to the point of being unusable. If I immediately call back using an iPhone on iOS 13 the call goes through with no problems. Speed tests take during call attempts show 500-950 Mbps with a 2-3ms ping. So the problem is not the network; it’s the iPhone running iOS 14.
