I have two wired doorbells and have today changed my router. I now notice that both doorbells are only showing black and white video images. I have done a reset on the back door bell and it shows good wifi but the video is still black and white. My two security cameras are showing a colour image. Any ideas to get back the colour on the doorbells?

    Hi @DorsetDC. Can you please share an example of these black and white images you're seeing? Also, is this occurring at night or during the day, and which model of Video Doorbell do you have? The model name will be on the Device Health page in the Ring app.

      Hi @Caitlyn_Ring. I also have had the same problem for a week now. Product name "Wired Video Doorbell". Firmware also upto date as is DorsetDC's . Unit new in July, so would be in warranty. It's like the day/night sensor is playing up and it's thinking its night-time, during the day.

      Hi Mine is stuck in black and white all day. The device health report says ring know of the issues with the wired version and software and that issue is now resolved. Well its obviously not. Ring is losing its good reputation by not checking the software roll outs and additional reporting fixes that again don't work. Someone in software dev needs a new job.

    Thanks for your reply and I attach herewith images of both doorbells showing the images after replacing the router and how they previously showed the image in colour. Both are Ring Video Doorbell Wired and both firmwares are up to date. ![Screenshot 2022-11-18 at 16.25.17|690x385](upload://xDKo8CeIsgTszfzUWbAKrejE3L6.jpeg) !
