I have a subscription it works, I don't have a subscription it does not work
First month subscription without problems.
Then without subscription, problem with connection (reconnect).
After a while, I bought a subscription and everything works again.
Now I have no aoonament and connection problems.
Coincidence? I do not think so.

The camera does not work if you don't have the subscription, buy Arlo.

Hi neighbors! When it comes to video connection, it is important to consider wifi and mobile connection variables. Narrowing this down can be quick and easy with just a few steps. Give our Rapid Ring app a try, if you are not already using it, as it is designed for the quickest access to live view, which is most important when not you are subscribed to a Protect Plan subscription. Please also ensure there is not a vpn enabled. It's always good to confirm your device health RSSI is sufficient as reflected in this [Community post ](https://community.ring.com/t/how-it-works-your-ring-device-rssi-good-vs-poor/229).
In addition to the above, I recommend also disabling [Advanced Motion Detection](https://support.ring.com/hc/en-us/articles/360042728431-Advanced-Motion-Detection-in-Ring-Devices) settings such People Only Mode, or even setting all your settings to default. If live view works with the most default settings, feel free to enable your desired settings and ensure the Ring app is performing as intended with each, on your mobile device.
If your concern is persisting despite trying the above suggestions, please give our support team a call at one of the numbers available [here](https://support.ring.com/hc/en-us/articles/213608406). We’re taking additional steps to protect our team and help reduce the spread of COVID-19, so this has resulted in longer than normal wait times. If you are outside of the US, please read our response to COVID-19 [here](https://support.ring.com/hc/en-gb/articles/360041597471) to see how to contact support.

I've had the same issue since day one. I don't need or want a subscription, but I do want to see who's at the door when it detects motion or someone rings the bell. The live view almost NEVER comes up when I get an alert, but in the app it appears it's processing the video that it shouldn't be recording. If I go back to the device page, the view shown is a few seconds old, even though I was never able to see the live view. I've tried the Rapid Ring app, and it's marginally better - but still almost never gives me a live view immediately after a notification. So of course I can never see a person when they're at the door, or talk to them. Very disappointing!! Is this a protection racket - worthless unless you pay for a subscription??

It’s same for me . Called customer support and wasn’t any help. Now I am thinking maybe getting subscription will help
