Live view only works after ringing doorbell
Our Ring is hardwired and many times trying to use live view, it says activating device, then stops, and a button saying "reconnect" pops up, but it doesn't work. Only after physically ringing the doorbell, does it work again. This obviously negates the purpose of having the Ring at all. Is anyone else experiencing this? Any idea how to resolve it?

Same issue with mine as well. WiFi signal shows good, wired power, tried resting the ring, reconnecting it to my network, deleting the app restarting my phone and then reinstalling it, no luck. It’s odd that I can go back and view all the video footage without any issue but just can’t get live view to activate.

I have it with Doorbell 3, really annoying. Maybe they'll fix it in the update.
