Seems like a majority of you are dealing with WIFI jammers.... I've been noticing the same, and I'm a network engineer, so I know the networking inside out. I've been wondering about my wifi quality and did a lot of work and research. few days ago, my tools were stolen from my place, and the wifi was down at the same time. I've been checking the pattern of the wifi quality, and someone told me it feels like a wifi Jammer. I did a simple google search for wifi jammers, and sure enough there were plenty of information, and the ease of jamming the wifi makes the ring USELESS for theft protection. So no more wireless cameras, and only wired cameras for security.

Door Bell symptoms do not support WiFi jammers. Door bell goes offline only when a visitor rings the bell. It goes off immediately. I turn off and on the breaker and bell is back on line. Ringing the door bell causes it to go offline otherwise it can be online for weeks.

My issue is not WiFi jammer related. The bell goes offline only when someone rings it. It rings and goes offline after a second. I turn off and on the breaker and it is connected again. If I don't power cycle it will stay offline.

My Ring 2 worked for a few months but lost wifi connection and could not re-connect. I tried reconnecting including pulling battery and/or rebooting router many times to no avail. I thought it was just a bad unit. Luckily I got it from Costco so I returned it and bought a new one. But this time it only worked for two weeks before the same problem happened. I also have two Ring Floodcams that are firmly connected all this time. Call Ring Help who was totally useless. Any help is appreciated.

I have the same problem and as you stated Ring Tech help is "No HELP!" It keeps disconnecting on my iPhone, I figured it's some kind of defect, gonna buy real security camera system instead. I got the Ring doorbell from my ex-son-in-law cause he seen it was needed. I do appreciate him doing this. Just get something more reliable. Good Luck!

My Ring doorbell does the exact same thing. It is one of 4 ring devices I have and the closest to the WIFI router. It is the only one that disconnects from WIFI and it happens every 3-5 days. I have reset it and still have the same issue...it is frustrating.

From a product point of view, this is a bad thing. As the doorbell keeps ringing the typical users will never know that there's a security issue unless they check the app periodically. One would think that being a cloud based device, Ring would also notice that connectivity is lost and inform the user of the occurance.

My keeps disconnecting on my iPhone WiFi and I've only had it for ~1.5 weeks! then it also tracks every car motion that passes by my house and I already set the parameters like it showed me. Is it really this bad with others?

Same issue here. Only this happens once a day. This is the only device that keeps disconnecting. All my Nest products have no issue. The door bell is 14 feet from the router. I have to reset everything to get it back online. Then it is good until evening. Then comes back online now and then by itself. Very frustrating.
