A:AnswerHello JodyG,
Great question. Yes, wifi is needed on your mobile device and also in your home for the Ring Video Doorbell to work as intended. You can also add multiple Ring devices to your Ring App at any time. Ring gives a complimentary 30-day trial with each new Ring device. After 30 days, you can choose if you would like to purchase a Ring Protect Plan. A Ring Protect Plan is not necessary to view real-time notifications on your Ring cameras. Without the Ring Protect Plan, you can still use the live view and two-way audio features. You are still able to see who is at your door and answer motion notifications. In order to see past recorded videos from your ring device, you will need the optional Ring Protect Plan, which starts at $3/month per device or $30/year per device. Please see the following link for more information regarding the Ring Protect Plan and the benefits it offers: https://ring.com/protect-plans?undefined.

A:AnswerYes you definitely need WiFi. But.. ‘Ring’ will be on a different configuration than the rest of the products in your home. you also have to make sure your router is configured correctly. Your provider can do this remotely. ( you can do this) if you have several WiFi products in your home, Contact your WiFi provider ..Also. Be considerate of where you place ring. Visibility is limited.
A:AnswerI have one for front and side door and wireless. Very simple. Even being out of state you are notified. The battery should last 6 months then you just remove and charge with usb. I also bought the chime pro in case my internet doesn’t work.
A:AnswerHello Tommy,
Great question. The Ring Video Doorbell can only be connected to an AC transformer. DC is not supported. The Ring Doorbell can directly to a low voltage 8-24V AC transformer.

Great question. Once you've set up a device in your Ring app, you'll be the sole account owner. As the account owner, you have control over all of the settings on your Ring devices. If you want to use multiple electronic devices (tablet, another phone, etc.) to control your Ring devices, download the Ring app onto the additional devices and use the same login and password you use to log into the Ring app.
