Does it work without WiFi?...In other words, my house WiFi is far from the front door and will not reach this device if mounted there. Will it work without a WiFi connection?
Will it connect with cellphone via "cellphone call" or through the cloud?

NO. It has to have wifi. Can you add a wifi repeater half way between the door bell and the house?

I believe it will work without WIFI but it will need to be connected to your existing door bell wiring.

Works through wi-fi only...no Bluetooth or cellular connectivity. As far as "through the cloud", you still have to make a connection via wi-fi to your network. I ended up buying a wi-fi range extender for it.

You will need the ring wi-fi extender.

No, without a WiFi connection, there is no way for the device to transmit data.
