Posted .Hi Killluminati. Being able to rely in your Indoor Cam is key in order to have some peace of mind. A 2.4GHz wifi network should provide sufficient speeds, as long as your Indoor Cam is receiving a stable signal. To learn more about wifi and how to improve your signal, check out this Help Center article: https://support.ring.com/hc/en-us/articles/360020044511-How-to-Make-Wifi-Work-For-You.

Disappointed
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I loved the camera but I kept getting messages about a subscription. I asked before I bought it if you had to have for it to work. I was told no. I found out after 30 days you only get live feed so what good is that if someone breaks in because I wouldn't have video of it. I returned it for a Kasa TP-LINK older model which does not require a subscription and it does give you 2 days of video. I just go in daily and delete them. If there were an incident I could forward the video to myself and give it to the authorities.

Posted .Hi Nannychell, I definitely understand the importance of knowing what you're getting from your home security devices. The Ring Protect plan is an optional subscription that offers extra features for your Indoor Cam, including video recording. Without a Ring Protect plan, you can still receive notifications and activate Live View. For more information, check out this article from our Help Center https://support.ring.com/hc/en-us/articles/115001671383-General-Information-on-Ring-Protect-Subscription-Plans. Best wishes, Ashley from Ring.

Returned due to lack of security!?!
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I had a Ring doorbell at my last house and was very happy with it, so recently purchased their security system. However given Ring's poor response after the hacking of their cameras, I returned this product, unopened. Ring is representing themselves as a security option for the DIY homeowner and yet apparently did not provide the homeowner the technical protocol needed to protect themselves when using a Ring device. And then when problems arose, Ring blamed the homeowner. I will look to find a better system/company for my security needs, one that provides a safe product and quality customer service.

Posted .Hello KcJoe
We understand the importance of having a seamless setup experience and how it can be concerning to see that the Ring Indoor Cam will not set up accordingly. Rest assured, that it is a top priority for us to get this working for you.
The Indoor Cam is designed to work in many environments to provide you with peace of mind and security.
If you're not able to successfully complete a setup, try rebooting your modem and/or router. Since your router and modem are usually the hardest working devices in your house, these devices like to be rebooted about once a month for optimal performance.
To reboot these devices, follow the instructions below:
Unplug your router or model from its power supply (don't just turn it off).
If your router and modem are separate, unplug both of them.
Wait at least 30 seconds, then plug them back in.
Wait for your internet to be restored.
Confirm that your internet has been restored by connecting another device to your wifi network and trying to access a website, then repeat the setup process.
When you’ve tried everything else, and setting up your Ring device still isn’t succeeding, try performing a hard reset. To perform a hard reset on any Ring product, hold down the setup button for just over 15 seconds and then release it.
For any additional questions or concerns, please feel free to reach out on our community forum at https://community.ring.com/. You can also visit our help site, https://support.ring.com/hc/en-us, for tips & tricks, videos and help articles for all our Ring products.

Posted .Hello Pixelbiscuit,
It is important that the features available to you on your Indoor Cam meet your needs and expectations. We do appreciate that you have placed value in owning a Ring product for your home security.
The Ring Indoor Cam is designed to work in many environments to provide you with peace of mind and security. Please be sure to push the included power cord in firmly, until you hear a click. Next, if you're not able to successfully complete a setup, try rebooting your modem and/or router. Since your router and modem are usually the hardest working devices in your house, these devices like to be rebooted about once a month for optimal performance.
Your Indoor Cam has an LED light located on the front to show you the status of your unit. A blinking blue light can indicate several different statuses, including setup mode, or in most cases the device is doing a firmware update after setup is complete.
We would love to connect with you today to help ensure your devices are set up and you are able to take advantage of all the great features your Indoor Cameras have to offer.
