Live View not Working with Dual Sim

Hi So I have my iPhone 11 Pro that has iOS 15.3.1, here in Australia I have two providers Telstra(Physical) and Vodafone (E-Sim) when I turn the second line off the live view starts working, it doesn't matter which line I disable it starts working. I have uninstalled the app and re-installed the app, reset the network settings, even restarted the phone on LTE Im getting great speeds over 100mbps. My Ring Door Bell has Great Wifi (-48 RSSI) and there's no issues with download or upload speed Doorbell is hardwired with a ring transformer Rapid Ring works ok but occasionally drop outs. ![IMG_0489.PNG|230x500](upload://5KJcKZInmw6npd2cWOgnQi3S9q9.jpeg)

    Created a community ring account to report I am also experiencing the same issue as others have reported. The only fix is to turn off the esim. Which is not a solution as I need dual sim services simultaneously active. Whilst connected on wifi, live streaming works without any issues. Wifi speeds are significantly slower than mobile data service. This is not a unique set up as it’s clear many people are impacted globally. RING PLEASE INVESTIGATE THIS ISSUE.

      Dutch user on Iphone SE2020, same issue. Was on the phone with Ring 6 times in the last 4 days, got to the "Smart guys tier" 3 times. Finally, by accident, discovered the rootcause myself. Contacted Ring again with the information, they bounced me off to Apple and my celservice provider.👎🏻 Tassiebean's workaround works perfectly. Downside, as already mentioned, once they start taking 3G down you don't have data connection on that SIM anymore. This happened for us Dutchies in march 2022. For anyone in the same situation, if you have no issue in using one of your Sim's as a call/text-only connection than this will work. For all others, your second connection will be slower. Stil contemplating to return the set and use an alternative brand smart doorbell.

        Same problem in Italy with two SIMs with iPhone 11 I solved by disabling VoLTE for the sim that doesn't use data. However, it is necessary to investigate for the definitive solution ![WhatsApp Image 2022-12-27 at 17.55.29|542x500](upload://pOww7FD0k0w7CsHWMXhalrDwbTs.jpeg)

        I am also facing this exact problem, EE and Vodafone SIM in the UK. I use an iPhone 12 Pro Max. Got the Ring Smart Video Doorbell Pro 2. The video works perfectly on Wi-Fi on live view, but when I connect to mobile data with the dual sim’s both active and set up, it shows Streaming error sometimes and other times takes 15 - 30 seconds to load. However l, when I deactivate one of the Sims, the video is clear and loads instantly. The support line told me to check the Wi-Fi strength and my mobile Internet speed, and all that is perfectly fine. Upon reading the forums, it seems that the rapid Ring app did not have this problem, but that one seems to have been discontinued and the main ring app has this bug, which doesn’t like the dual Sim set up. I would encourage any other users to report this to advanced technical, I’ve done this and will continue. I’m going to chase them up until they resolve this issue. Surely deactivating one of the SIMs is not acceptable solution for a £200 plus doorbell!

          I have spent months trying to sort this and just worked it out this morning - googled it and found this thread on here (glad im not the only one). Ring was no help and didn't even tell m there was a known problem. I need duel sim and not going to change because Ring cant fix a problem that is affecting a high number of customers - waisted a years subscription and £££ door bell and the Pro extender as was told it was my end - also a new router and thought it was that not allowing me to go in from 4g. Has anyone got an update or how this can be escalated?.
