    So just trying to troubleshoot why this ring chime pro will not connect correctly, just come off the phone from support in the USA, even they are confused.So tried adding it normally with the QR code or the 5 digit number and takes me through the process then has trouble connecting to the wifi supposedly even though its registered on my router with an ip address.It then tells me and flashes red saying connected to wifi but no internet.Tried reinstalling the app on two devices and two app stores.Same problem anyone else know a fix?

      Hello,I'm trying to setup my 2nd Gen Chime and I get to the setup wifi part, the chime flashes blue then goes to solid red. I've tried moving it closer to an access point but that doesn't seem to do it. Any suggestions?Thanks.

        Don't call client support, they are worthless. Their suggestion to me was to buy a new one and try again.

          Just bought a Chime Pro 2nd Gen. Right out of the box, it will not complete the setup, fails to connect to the internet at the end of the wifi setup. Have tried like 10 times now, rebooted wifi, hard reset the Chime, updated the Ring App, scanned the code, used the 5 digit code, yada yada. Nothin

          Just a final follow-up here...I gave up and returned the Chime Pro Gen 2. I ordered a Gen 1 model, took it out of the box and within 5 minutes it was setup and working perfectly. There must be something wrong with the Gen 2 models. Thanks for everyone's responses.

          Yes I’ve tried connecting to the ‘setup 5b’ network and followed all the troubleshooting. It still will not connect and set up my 2nd Gen Chime ??

          I had the same problem, I bought a new Chime Pro 2 on Amazon and it got to the step to connect to Wi-Fi it would say it could not connect. But I kept trying the "same" network I used for my Ring Video Door bell. After resetting completely - 30 FULL seconds - I did the setup again. This time I _did not_ use the same network as previous. I then selected the network I wanted to use which "was the same network" but this time I could put in a password. After that the setup worked like a charm and my Chime Pro 2 is now working. Key - Do not select the same network - act like it is a different network but then select the same network. Seems to resolve the problem.

            Hi there , i had a similar problem. And after some fault finding results, my solution was that the chime needs to be signed in to your router as you would with any new device. So in summary you input your router password like you did when you first installed your Ring doorbell . And mine works perfe
