Ring Doorbell Pro 2 Problems
Does anyone have a Ring Doorbell Pro 2 that works perfectly? If so, did it take a lot of effort to get it to work properly? If not, what problems are you still experiencing?

Based on my experience, I'm a bit surprised to hear that yours works well. Unfortunately, mine has a number of problems. Some of the most serious problems are related to motion sensitivity. As a result, it definitely does not provide the same level of security as the Ring Video Doorbell Pro that it replaced.

BI run mine with people only mode which I find works well. To be honest I am not bothered about the birds eye view stuff. I don't have a large enough property for that to be of use. Have you got it mounted at the recommended height (about 4 feet)?

Fbmak187 - The "people only" mode would not work for me, due to my individual needs. I don't think the mounting height is presenting any problems.

FUmer - I have the "Audio Streaming and Recording" setting turned off -- so I don't know if the microphone works. I don't hear any sound when playing video clips, however. For example, if I'm playing a video clip that contains a gardener using a loud leafblower, I won't hear the leafblower.

- I can't connect to my 5ghz wifi network no matter what I try - I can't assign a static IP, it always changes to DHCP - My audio disappeared, had to hard reset it to get it working again (this was 1 week ago) - The video skips half a second every 15 seconds or so, not sure why - Ring advertises this as 25fps video recording, VLC player shows this as only 20fps

If you own a RING DOORBELL PRO 2 and are HAPPY with MOTION DETECTION capabilities: * Are video clips consistently created for all activity in a 30 foot (or greater) radius in all directions? * Are video clips consistently created for all activity in a 30 foot (or greater) radius only if the activity is straight ahead of the doorbell? * If you own a Ring Video Doorbell Pro (Gen 1)... is the motion detection of your Ring Doorbell Pro 2 (Gen 2) as good as (or better than) the Ring Video Doorbell Pro (Gen 1)? * If you own other Ring (Gen 1) camera devices... is the motion detection of your Ring Doorbell Pro 2 (Gen 2) as good as (or better than) the (Gen 1) devices? * If a vehicle is driving toward your Ring Doorbell Pro 2 device... will a video clip be created? * If a vehicle is driving away from your Ring Doorbell Pro 2 device... will a video clip be created? * If a vehicle drives past your home (from left to right)... will a video clip be created? * If a vehicle drives past your home (from right to left)... will a video clip be created? * Do you use the new 3D type app features... or just the features that are available for (Gen 1) devices? * Does the Motion Zone feature in your app work well? * Can you easily create/configure 1, 2, or 3 motion zones? * Do you use only one motion zone – which covers the entire Motion Zone screen? * Is the Motion Sensitivity slider in your app set to "Max"? * What OS does your mobile device use (i.e., Android, IOS, iPadOS, Windows, etc.)? * Do you use the Ring website to view video clips?

BI am happy with the motion detection on mine but as I mentioned I run it in people only mode which I fine works very well, as do the motions zone, again only looking for people. I do not use the 3D motion as for me this would be of no use (to honest unless you have a fairly large property its a bit of a gimmick) and in the UK the maps to make this work are very poor due to them being supplied by Mapbox who dont have good high res maps for a lot of the UK. However I understand you are looking to run it to detect all motion so will need to wait for someone to come along who can answer.

Mine works very well with the exception of the very dim LED light around the button (other threads about this). That seems to be a known issue with the device and hoping for an update from Ring soon around it. I have seen some threads about audio issues but I haven't seen these myself. I have mine set up running off a chime pro all connected to 2.4ghz Wi-Fi.
