Ring - Alarm Range Extender (2nd Gen) - White

Hello Crazyhouse, The Ring Alarm Range Extender will not work for your cameras, it only works with the Ring Alarm. For extending your WIFI to your camera we recommend the Ring Chime Pro. Best regards, Jamila

Hello User8787, Great question! The Ring Alarm Range Extender is designed to extend and expand the Ring Base Station’s Z-Wave network, allowing for greater range and network coverage for all Ring Alarm devices at your location. This article details what a Z-Wave network is and how it works in our alarm system devices: https://support.ring.com/hc/en-us/articles/360001263166-Understanding-Z-Wave-and-Mesh-Networks. Here is a helpful article elaborating on the Alarm Range Extender, if more information is needed: https://support.ring.com/hc/en-us/articles/360028191991-Range-Extender-Help-FAQs. Furthermore, a Ring Chime Pro is a great solution if you want to extend the wireless internet connection to your Ring doorbell or security camera devices. Generally, a single Chime Pro can effectively improve connectivity to your Ring devices in a two to three bedroom home, or if your devices are located close together. For larger homes, with devices located farther apart, you may need to consider purchasing a mesh network system like the eero network. A regular wifi network distributes the wifi signal from a single point, your router. The further the signal has to stretch away from the router, the weaker it becomes. A mesh network has multiple wifi distribution points that keep the wifi signal strong from different distribution points.
