Instead of using the ring wifi extender will a standard 2.4G / 5G wifi extender work?? null

Question

Yes, just extend the same network (doesn't have to be the same wifi name, but one the same network), and it works fine. I used a Wifi Extender in the back of my office, and the Pro-Chime in the front, but the chime failed, and I replaced it with an extender, then reprogrammed the doorbell to that extender.

I had a 2.4/5 G extender and I figured out after a long period of time it was actually decreasing my WiFi! When I took the extender out of the plug and just used the chime pro my Wifi was stronger and the performance was better on my Ring ll doorbell. Personally I wouldn’t recommend it.

Only a 2.4g will work. If it extends your network with the same password it should work.
