When the doorbell did work the first month we had it it was excellent 5 stars.
Chime pro ring review.
The second great thing they ve done with the chime pro is to make it double as a wi fi extender.
Ring s original chime pro kind of stuck out like a sore thumb.
Its easy to setup and use.
The ring pro doorbell doesn t work.
When you pull off the cardboard the main box is just a plain black package with the company s logo featured on the lid.
The base station and the keypads do make a chime and an alarm when a sensor is triggered a window or door being opened but this ring pro chime is solely for the other devices which stinks.
Although this review and 1 star rating is for the ring chime pro i ll provide a bit of context which includes why we bought this product.
The new version is a little cleaner and nicer designed and does away with the spacey antennae that used to adorn the original version.
It is also possible to pair the doorbell to any number of ring video doorbells.
Its sides are concealed with a piece of sturdy cardboard that features the chime pro s image its main features as well as extra information about the device.
The ring doorbell only works on the 2 4ghz wi fi band and its wi fi reception is poor.
The optional 29 ring chime or 49 ring chime pro can take care of that ring pro comes with four faceplates and you could always paint one to match your house exactly.
Something happened after month 1 and it hangs up and shows a black screen.
Maybe bringing the speeds up to 25 30mbps down.

Pros of the doorbell.
I didn t realize it doesn t work with the 5ghz band.
It is easy to setup and the night light is cool but unless you have the other devices it is pretty much useless for my needs.
It looked like a radio wave box with bulky antennas facing up from both sides.
It was less homey and more mechanical engineering.
