Hey @gaynojm. There is not a way to remotely reset the Video Doorbell 2, as someone will need to be there with access to the Ring App and the Doorbell to reconnect it to wifi. This is because the device will need to be put into setup mode, which requires the setup button on the Doorbell to pressed.

Hey @galensdad. You can perform a reset and a new setup of your Doorbell to make sure everything is working properly. To reset the device, hold down the setup button for 30 seconds. After that's done, you'll want to run through a new setup in the Ring App by following the instructions under Set Up a Device. Once the setup completes, you can test the Doorbell out by ringing it and checking the Event History. Let me know how that works for you! :)

This is a major flaw in service and hardware. Highly dissappointed! Will shop around for something that I can operate remotely. If I were at home to fix it I could just look out my window and see who's there. Kind of defeats the purpose for this product.

Yes I am disappointed that my FL home’s ring doorbell needs to be reset but I can’t reset it from MI! Now I have no security until I can fly there to reset it!! Errrr!

Hi remote Ring door bell owner. I have the same issue with my home being cross the country. I can’t ask someone local to fix because then I have to share my WiFi security. I am very disappointed. I am going to explore other supplier options.
