“Can you tell me the greatest distance these can be from the wifi router & still work? I’d like to put one on our entrance gate to 3 acre property if possible. House is about 75-100 yards away from the gate. Will they work at that distance?”

Hello RingInterested, Great question! The range of the Spotlight Cameras is dependent on the signal of your home wifi network equipment. Getting a wireless signal from the transmitter to the receiver can be like trying to talk to a friend at a rock concert. A variety of environmental factors may keep you from getting to clarity. RSSI stands for Received Signal Strength Indicator. The RSSI measurement is all the factors that are hurting your signal at the receiving point. While RSSI is measured on a scale of 0 to -99, there won't ever just be one cause that is the culprit for a low RSSI rating. Some larger homes with thick walls and floors may benefit from using a wired access point via ethernet or Ring Chime Pro to boost the signal. Here are two helpful articles to review to understand how to get the best signal to your Ring devices: https://support.ring.com/hc/en-us/articles/360020044511-How-to-Make-Wifi-Work-For-You https://support.ring.com/hc/en-us/articles/217271526-Understanding-RSSI-Values-and-Wireless-Signal-Strength If you have any additional questions please do not hesitate to visit our support site at https://community.ring.com/ to find the answers you need.
