Two wifi networks - backup or "xfiniti" network?

I had guests in a short-term property disconnected wifi, so my Ring video doorbell disconnected, and then partied big time. Tens of people when then property had only 6 people limit and a strict to-partying rule. To prevent this from happening, I'd like Ring to have an option to connect to a predefined backup wifi network (neighbor's network, I can talk to him / pay to him for this). I can't find this in settings anywhere. If this is missing, I am thinking to use a generic "xfiniti" network from Comcast, as since most of comcast-owned internet modems are dual-homes, have two wifi SIDs - one your personal one, and another a generic "wifi" network so other Comcast customers can roam around and still take leverage of the wifi coverage of all other devices, not just your own wifi network. I think that's how Comast's xfiniti wifi coverage works ?

    Hi @Tagar. Unfortunately, this is not a feature that is available on our Doorbells. The Doorbell will not connect to another WiFi network automatically if the one it is connected to is not working. As we value our neighbors' feedback, we've created a [Feature Request board](https://community.ring.com/c/products/24). Feel free to add this and any future feature requests there. This will help us organize and share your requests with our teams here, as well as allow other neighbors to comment and add interest, all in one place. Feel free to link that post you make in the Feature Request board here so other neighbors that come to this thread can easily find your feature!
