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.
