Poor RSSI issue
I have a ring video doorbell 2 with the top of the line Google mesh WiFi. Fast! I consistently have a RSSI on my door bell of -59. The video is fine but audio is choppy all the time. Some times I have no audio at all. I have the Google WiFi directly on the other side of the wall from the doorbell. Same result. I tried connecting to the chime pro, and even the “guest network” on the Google WiFi. All same result. I am wondering if I got a defective doorbell somehow. I’ve tried taking the battery out and re-inserting it. It’s not my WiFi. I am certain of that. Someone please help!!

Yes. But isn’t that what it would be for any internet set up Mesh or not? Chime pro is basically an extender anyway so it’s a three way call no matter what kind of network you have. In the end I tried all combinations of networks, chime pro, no chime pro, regular network, guest network, reinstalling

Just joined up here. I just got a Ring 2 doorbell. Had my tech savvy kid set it all up for me. It is about 5 -8 feet from my router box and i have decent wifi. The 2 way talking very choppy. Not even remotely like the commercial I watched before buying. It is better than nothing at all, but not really what I had hoped for. Mine is hard wired into the house using existing power that my last door bell was on. That is not the problem.

JI just had a RSSI of a green 0, On my back bell, which is closer to router, and the video and audio was still choppy, then 10 minutes later, -67, according to ring “0” should be like a lan line, it was early in the morning, nothing changed but the RSSI. Choppy at “0” choppy at “-67” and every where

JAs stated earlier, a lot of people in here have tried the things ring always blames the problems on, with no better results, my environment is better than average conditions as it sounds with most people here also but I’ll state it again Distance: 1 bell is about 30 feet, second bell is about 20 f

I have the same issue with my Ring 2 and Google Wifi. There is a Google Wifi device about 2m from the Ring yet it complains about poor connection. My Google Wifi Mesh reports Great or Ok connections to all wifi points. Google Wifi Device test of the Ring reports a 26Mbps connection. Ring's "bandwidthplace.com" speedtest shows 16.73Mbps download and 8.18Mbps with a ping rate of 34ms (way below what other speedtests show, eg 40.9Mbps, 18.5Mbps, 7ms). Video quality is average but sound is unusable. Does anyone have any suggestions on how to improve things?

So just to clarify, you connected the Chime Pro to the mesh network and then your Ring device to the Chime Pro? And you're still having issues? If so, it might be time for a 3 way call with Ring & your router provider.
