Echo 4th gen as a bridge for a19 light bulbs
app-settings
cs-support
amazon-alexa

I have been trying to connect the ring a19 light bulb. Each time I went through the process it will state my echo is offline and wont complete the set up. I looked at the the ring app and it shows the echo is offline. I have spoke to amazon and ring many times and nothing has been resolved. The agents will do what they can and send me back in to a circle with nothing. I found this article https://community.ring.com/t/echo-4th-gen-offline-under-connected-devices/48070 i have went through the set up process over and over for 6+ hours. Lets get this fixed ASAP! I have been part of ring for many years. The set up process cant be this hard! I have link my amazon and ring account together. confirmed from ring it shows linked. Spoke to amazon and they confirmed my echo is online. ( god forbid i say her name) will respond to my requests. Whats the deal ring? this is frustrating

        I received the A19 Bulb for free with and Echo 4 Device, Tried every troubleshooting in the book. * Resetting the light (Turn on and Off 6 Times) * Disable/Enable the Ring Skill * Turning off/on my phone * Using other Devices (I tried 6! Yes, 6 other Devices, iOS and Android) * Changing the Address * Contacting customer support (Ring and Amazon) But nothing works for such a simple light this is to much trouble, To be hones this is my first Ring device and I was planning to purchased even more since the echo 4 has the built in bridge (have a little crush on the ring door bell for a while) but at this point I’m considering my self unlucky that I didn’t get a Sengled smart bulb instead, which I have 3 since I purchased 3 echo dots, and not a single one of them give me troubles, just connect them and synch them, I don’t know if this a know issue but I really hope that Ring solved it quick

          Doesn’t work for me either. Up until today, they still haven’t figured it out. Still doesn’t work with my show 10 (3rd gen).

            I have the echo dot 4th gen and I am unable to connect to the A19 ring lights. I have used amazon chat to try and troubleshoot and they told me to call ring. I called ring and spend the better part of an hour troubleshooting with no luck in the end. Why is ring marketing the new echo devices as light bridges if they are not working as such? I specifically purchased the echo dot to use as a ring bridge and I am currently at a loss as to what I should do. Was anyone else able to figure this mess out?
