I have a creepy neighbor that has been watching me using his ring floodlight camera. Lately, I have noticed some strange things happeneing @ night when I go to bed. When I go back to look for the video footage I get snapshots of him on my property or in front of my house. Tonight, I went live to watch him as soon as he got home from work. It appears based off the footage that he is sending a signal to the cameras on my property (I have 4 spotlight cams and there lights flash including the floodlight cam) so they don’t record video. NOTE: (I can share the 8 min video with whoever would like to see it and help me figure this out.) I checked my router to see if there is any type of intrusion but nothing. My ring account is locked tight with a 10 digit passcode and authentication. When in live view I am not seeing any intruptions to my internet. What was good about going LIVE tonight was he appeared alittle frustrated that whatever he was trying to do didn’t happen to the floodcam while in live view. It only made the lights on the other devices come on and off showing me that he was sending something to them. When not in live view I get no video but snapshots. So whatever he is doing he is able to block motion activation. Can anyone help me figure out what is going on or even how? Can you imagine a massive amount of people with such technology?
