Ring Doorbell Live View on iPhone only works w/cellular, not wifi
When I use my iPhone and the Ring App to see the Live View, if I have wifi on, the Live View cannot connect. If i turn wifi off and just use cellular, then I get the Live View.There was a similar post in Ring Community, but there it had to do with the wifi at work which was blocking video uploads. In my case, the wifi is in a home away from where my Ring device is, and the Live View gets blocked.Any ideas on this???

I have your exact same problem and drives me crazy. I have an Orbi router and I have tried everything to fix the issue. DMZ, port forwarding and so on. My signal to the cameras is excellent and if I cannect remotely I can get live view to work in less than a second. When I am connected from home it takes up to 30 seconds for live view to show something but some times it just doesn't connect. I have noticed that my Echo Show 5 connects using the home wifi with no issues..not sure why it is the only device that properly works with live view over my wifi. I have tried ios and android apps almost with same results. What kind of router do you have?

I have this problem as well and it started maybe a week ago. I can't see video with the Ring app or the Rapid Ring app while I'm on Wifi but if I turn WiFi off, they both work. I haven't made any changes on my end, but I think the Ring app software updated recently because I now have the Mode Settings options. I was on the phone with support for like 2 hours and here are some things we tried that haven’t worked:- Tried accessing the Ring/Rapid Ring app from my iPad and my computer.- Restarting my router (BGW210)- Opening ports on my router’s firewall: Ring SIP, 15063-15064, TCP/UDP, 15063, Ring RSS1, 998-999, TCP, 998, Ring RTP: 16500-65000, UDP, 16500, Ring RSS2: 6970-6970, TCP, 6970, Ring App1: 7076-7077, UDP, 7076, Ring App2: 9078-9079, UDP, 9078I even tried another Ring Pro unit to see if there was a problem with mine, but it had the same issue. This is very frustrating, so if anyone has any advice on what to try, please let me know. Thanks!

DI'm having a similiar issue where it would take at least 5-10 seconds to connect and that's if it connects at all. I have an ORBI router as well. I tried tech support and after reviewing my setup, they claim it is "normal"? I have 3 floodcam and they connect with the same hardware/wifi instantaneou

I've owned a Ring doorbell for sometime and it has worked extremely well. Recently I installed two Ring Stick Up indoor cams. When attempting to use Live View on the two indoor cams, Live View will not open. It just spins and says "loading". We have two iPhones with the Ring app on each. Both iPhones are up to date. Also, we have two iPads that are also up to date. After extensive searching for solutions and testing I discovered that if my phones/ipads are connected to the same WiFi as the Ring devices, Live View will not work. But if the phones or iPads are using cellular Live View does work fine. Rapid Ring app also works fine even if on WiFi or cellular. My Ring Doorbell has a weak WiFi signal. The two Ring Stick Ups have a very strong signal. One is located in the same room as router. No one seems to have a valid solution for this problem.

Have you tried turning off the firewall of your router?
