Hi Vivs.

Thank you for taking the time to share your experience with us. We understand the importance of having a consistent wifi signal on the Ring Video Doorbell Wired. Having a solid connection ensures you do not miss any activity around your home. We are here today to provide you with education to assist you in finding the best solution for your home’s environment.

It sounds like you experienced some connection issues with the device. Usually, devices falling offline repeatedly is related to poor wifi connectivity caused by signal fluctuations, channel congestion, or data loss.

To determine whether or not the problem is caused by poor upload speed, run a speed test to determine if your network can support Ring devices. In edition to ensuring that you have sufficient wifi speeds, you will also want to check the signal strength of your device. Ring devices with 1080p video require at least 1 Mbps upload and download speeds, though 2 Mbps is recommended for optimal performance.

A poor wifi signal can cause connectivity with your Ring device to be unreliable. Check the Device Health section of your Ring application to ensure the device’s RSSI is within an acceptable range. The recommended range for optimal performance is 0 to -60 for the RSSI.

If your networking equipment hasn’t been power cycled in a while, try unplugging it for 30 seconds and plugging it back in. Wireless networks utilize different channels for communication. In the United States, the 2.4 GHz band uses channels 1-11 and the 5 GHz band uses channels 36-165. In some cases, setting up your Ring device(s) can fail due to wireless interference or congestion.

We also recommend adding a Ring Chime Pro to your network. The Ring Chime Pro simply plugs into a wall outlet between your router and the Ring Video Doorbell Wired to assist with the wifi signal strength to the device.

That is why we are driven to create products that help you protect what matters most at home and empower you to connect with your visitors from wherever you are.

We recommend the installation of a Ring Chime to enable chime functionality. Ring Chime is an easy-to-install, plug-in device that audibly alerts you in real-time when someone rings your doorbell as well as providing notifications for motion detected by your Ring cameras and doorbells, all customizable with various tones, volume control, and a snooze feature via the Ring app.

Hello Barb,

Thank you for taking the time to share your experience with us. We believe that transparency is key in order to make informed purchasing decisions. The Ring Video Doorbell Wired is a wired-only doorbell and connects to your existing doorbell wiring for non-stop power.

During the installation of this doorbell, you will be instructed to bypass the existing doorbell chime in your home. This means that after installation, your home doorbell system will not sound when the device’s button is pressed. If you wish to hear audio alerts in your home, you can pair your Video Doorbell Wired with a Ring Chime or compatible Alexa device.
