      Hi MaryaliceS.

      Thank you for taking the time to share your experience with us. We understand the importance of a seamless setup process so that you can begin using your Ring Spotlight Cam Plus right away. The features and technology provided by the Ring Spotlight Cam Plus are incredibly valuable and help provide you with peace of mind about your home security. We are eager to provide you with a solution for the connection concern mentioned in your review.

      It sounds like the device is not performing as expected. The Ring Spotlight Cam Plus is designed to work with your home's wifi network and is compatible with b/g/n wifi networks operating on 2.4 GHz frequencies. If you're receiving a 'Setup did not complete' message and cannot finish setup, it could be due to one of these common causes of setup failures:

      * Your Ring device is too far from your wifi router. Ideally, your router should be within 20 feet of your Ring device.
      * There's a possible problem with your internet connection.
      * There's a possible issue related to your wifi modem or router.

      Make sure your wifi router is off the floor.
      Walls, floors, and furniture can interfere or weaken your router’s wireless signal. Choose an elevated, central, open location.
      Make sure you're entering the correct password. Passwords are case sensitive and do not include spaces. Your network password can often be found on the bottom or side of your router.

      Wifi passwords are case and special character (such as *,@,$, or #) sensitive. Double check letter capitalization and placement.
      If you haven't changed your wifi password since your router was installed, it may be on a sticker on the underside of your router.
      Connect other devices to your wifi network using your last remembered password to verify it is still correct.
      If you have multiple networks or a wifi extender, confirm you are connecting to the correct one.
      Make sure to connect to the 2.4 GHz network, not 5 GHz. All Ring devices can connect to 2.4 GHz, while only select Ring devices have Dual-Band Wifi to be able to connect to either.
      If you’re still having issues, try holding down the setup button on top of the camera for 10 seconds.

      We invite you to reach out to our community if any additional information is needed regarding your Ring Spotlight Cam Plus. The Ring Community is our first peer-to-peer community forum, giving our customers the ability to help one another by sharing their feedback and experiences with each other.

      Thank you,

    This camera stopped working 15 days after purchase. Ring said it had to be returned to the place of purchase and Best Buy would NOT take it back because it was past their 14 day return policy. I will no longer buy this brand or shop at Best Buy.
