- THi @Peaceke. Theres a few things we need to look at in order to determine what could be happening here. What is the RSSI for this device? What device is this? Do you have [Doorbell Announcements](https://support.ring.com/hc/en-us/articles/360018032731-Doorbell-Announcement-Notifications-Through-Amazon-Alexa) enabled in your Alexa App? What troubleshooting steps have you performed? Knowing what you've done, can help us determine where to go next. Thanks, neighbor.•

- UBasically as far as I can tell RING DOORBELL and ALEXA do not actually work. I’ve tried for MONTHS and nothing. EVERYTIME I set ALEXA to enable front door as soon as I close the Alexa App it DISABLES. Basically another marketing ploy that doesn’t actually work.•

- UMy doorbell was notifying through my Echo dots perfectly and then it quit about a week ago. I would still get notifications through my phone, however it would not notify through Echo anymore. I tried everything people have posted which included... 1. Changed email to match Amazon account 2. Disabled the Ring skill in Alexa app 3. Uninstalled Ring app 4. Reinstalled Ring app 4. Re-enabled Ring Skill 5. Re-linked the accounts This did not work!! What did work is to follow all the above steps, but this time I uninstalled the Ring doorbell from my Alexa app so when I linked my Ring and Alexa app it rediscovered my Ring doorbell as if it were a new device. It now works perfectly. Don't forget after you do this, to go back into Alexa under doorbell settings and enable the announcements that you want and on which devices you want it to alert you on.•
