Ring - Battery Doorbell Pro

Idk I don’t have this issue with mine. I can charge it to 50% and it will last weeks. I have it on the highest motion setting and people are constantly walking past my door. Not to mention my bf stalks the hallway by watching the live view all the time. I haven’t ever had an internet issue either. Maybe it’s the model you have. My father got the ring battery pro or something the one where you can change the battery out and his keeps missing motion.

yes i have one and i find it great, if you already have alexa devices in the house the ring doorbell works seamlessly with them, so when someone rings the doorbell, the alexa devices will notify you, saves getting an indoor bell chime. i have the battery one a few years and charge maybe 3 times a year. any decent doorbell camera is worth the small investment to be honest, doesnt have to be ring.

I had a problem where the battery Ring would randomly disconnect from wifi. I live in a tiny apartment with a router near the ring. All the wifi tests showed enough strength when standing next to the ring with the door closed. I called Ring customer service and they sent me a code to order a Chime Pro for free. The rep said it had to be the Pro version not the regular Chime. I haven’t had a problem since. Maybe try calling customer service to see if they can help you out.

I have a battery doorbell, and I only have to charge it once a month if that.

In Costco they have a ongoing deal of 120$ for battery doorbell + tilt cam and outdoor cam plus, lowered from 190$ and each of the cams being a 30 day free trial subscription that if you don’t need to activate them all at once, you can leave a couple days in between of each of them so you can use to your advantage the 30 day free trial [Costco deal](https://imgur.com/a/MSmbTTf)

The wiring will charge the expensive ring doorbells and it will use the old ringer/bell inside. The cheap ring doorbell works of batteries only and you need to buy a new chime/rining speaker for the house.

I recently upgraded a 2016 pro wired one for the latest pro model (not the brand new 4k one) and it solved all my problems. The old one would never give me motion notifications, connect to live extremely slowly, and shut off randomly. Something might be wrong with yours.

I switched from Ring to Reolink. I have all video saved locally and I can pass it through Frigate for really good AI detection. It also integrates perfectly with Home Assistant. You can get their NVR to make this simple. My switch started because I had a package stolen and the Ring camera didn’t show it for some reason.

Powered wifi cams for doorbells plus POE. This is Reolink. For Ring my doorbells were battery powered plus a bunch of wifi cams.

If you use a Ring be aware that you need the model that runs on power. I had a battery model that was connected to power to charge the battery. The battery often was drained and I needed to remove it and recharge outside the doorbell. Use the powered model without the battery to feed from the old 24vac feed.

I've a bettery powered ring door bell, it's dead handy
