Hello Toys

Thank you for leaving a review. We know how important it is to have peace of mind when it comes to your home security. Your Ring Video Doorbell Pro 2 is intended to provide this for you. Please know that we are here to assist and are confident that we can find you a resolution in a timely manner.

Based on your review, it seems like you are having trouble with your Ring Video Doorbell 2. The Video Doorbell Pro 2 is rated for temperatures ranging from -5 degrees F to 120 degrees F. An important factor in the Ring device’s battery life is whether it is wired to another source of power, such as an existing powered doorbell chime. In many parts of the world, winter brings cold, rain, sleet, snow, and sometimes extremely frigid temperatures. As a result, Ring doorbells or security cameras may have their performance affected by the cold. Please see our help center article for more information: https://support.ring.com/hc/en-us/articles/360056768972-Video-Doorbell-Pro-2-information.

Hi Workoutpartner.

Thank you for sharing your experience with us. We understand the importance of having your Ring Wired Doorbell Pro record clear and concise videos so that you can effectively monitor your home. The Ring Wired Doorbell Pro was designed to provide accurate motion detection, which plays an essential role in providing the peace of mind that Ring strives for. We are here today to provide you with solutions that will assist you in finding the best device settings for your home’s environment.

It sounds like the device is not performing as expected in regards to motion detection and video quality. It is important to ensure that you have the proper motion settings in place for your environment. This camera uses adjustable motion detection and runs on passive infrared sensors. The system identifies visitors via a moving heat signature and sends a notification to your smart device when one is detected. It is designed to detect motion up to 30 feet from where the camera is mounted. We recommend mounting the doorbell no higher than 5 feet from the ground. You can adjust three preset motion zones and their distances under the "Motion Settings" tab on the device's page in the Ring app. Additionally, you can choose how often the camera checks for movement in those predefined zones via the "Motion Frequency" setting.

Ring devices require high-speed internet to bring you crisp, clear video and audio. Poor network connectivity can affect the performance of your Ring device. We are happy to share some troubleshooting steps to help you diagnose and fix common video issues that you may experience with Ring doorbells and cameras.

Ring devices with 1080p video require at least 1 Mbps upload and download speeds, though 2 Mbps is recommended for optimal performance. In addition to ensuring that you have sufficient wifi speeds, you will also want to check the signal strength of your device. 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. Turn off your mobile device's cellular data and connect to the same wifi network as your Ring device. Open the Ring app. Tap the menu (☰). Tap “Devices.” Select your device. Trigger an event on your Ring doorbell. This could mean pressing the button on a doorbell or activating the motion sensors on a camera. Answer the event and examine the resulting video.

We have listed some possible outcomes from this test here:

1. The footage is crisp and clear.

If your video appears good when next to the router, the issue may be caused by a disruption in between your router and your Ring device’s normal location. To fix this, try moving your device closer to the router or extending your wifi signal with a wifi extender like the Ring Chime Pro.

2. The footage is heavily pixelated.

If you’re seeing heavy pixilation, even next to the router, this may be due to slow wifi speeds.
