Ethernet Security Camera Status Offline
Anyone else just start noticing that the hard wired Ethernet security cameras are now all showing a status of offline under device health? They work just fine but something has changed in the app or the online system to cause this. Obviously it is a bug.

Windows 10 is certainly not the issue for me. I use the Ring App from the Windows store on my PC and the devices correctly show as "Online" in that app. The issue I have is with the Ring App on both iPhone and iPad, where Device Health is incorrectly showing the cameras as "Offline".

Yes, same. I just installed on the 2nd and had issues every other day. Any advice? I used a 6-cat wired to install. It'll be online for a full day, then off and I can't get it back until I unplug the power completely and let it reboot.

TI have hte same problem, Device Health says Offline and Connection type is Ethernet. When I try the Reconnect to the Internet it tries to use Wifi. I bought a POE camera because I want it to use Ethernet, not Wifi. This is rediculous and I'm about ready to return the camera.

AI have a similar issue however if swaps between windows 10 app and ring app for android showing as offline but still recording. I wonder if the supplied POE adaptor is powerful enough for long runs? I will try a higher amperage unit and see how i get on. We also have large fluctations in power in NZ from 220-240volt that could be effecting it.

Is it possible that user is using Win 10 like I am that had recent updates, the latest 1909...I have a device (not Ring) unable to connect to Win 10 via Ethernet as of 4/2/20, spending hours and hours on and was told that possibly one of the last three (3) Win 10 updates may be the issue. Update 1909 was ironically auto installed on 4/2/20! Not tech savy at all but thought I'd share this information for Ring experts or community users that may want to explore....PS I do use the door bells and some cameras...Now considering the Security system and exploring/researching thus finding this thread. I will be ordering the system and hopefully it will connect...Love the Ring doorbells and the great outdoor cameras!
