Can a Ring extender help with cameras?

I need to get some of my camera's signals boosted. Will a Ring Extender do that? I have tried to extend my wireless network, but it doesn't seem to be helping much.

    Hi @jokharr. You can use the [Ring Chime Pro](https://ring.com/products/chime-pro-gen2) as a wifi extender for your Ring Cameras and Doorbells. It's important not to get this mixed up with the [Ring Alarm Range Extender](https://ring.com/products/alarm-range-extender-v2), which helps extend the Z-Wave network for Ring Alarm components. The Range Extender will not work with your Ring Cameras or Doorbells. I hope this helps!

      Well, it helped but not in the way I was hoping! Is there any extender for help with the cameras?

          Recently fixed my wired Security camera to the corner of the garage, but before assessing if the signal strength was good enough there. WiFi strength is Weak but camera function still works The App recommends adding Ring Chime Pro in order to extend signal but surely a standard WiFi extender can do the job?

            Hi @ArcLundi. The Ring Chime Pro is a wifi extender for Ring devices, which is why it is recommended in the Ring app for cases of a weak signal. You do not have to use the Chime Pro if you want to use a different wifi extender.
