I was without internet (therefore WiFi also) for 4 days due to hurricane Ian. I have a Video Doorbell Pro 2. The doorbell would not activate the mechanical chime while the WiFi was down. This is a major problem since the doorbell will not notify the Ring app or other device without WiFi. Should the doorbell activate the mechanical chime without WiFi? Or is my doorbell malfunctioning?
I had no damage because of the hurricane. Compared to the problems other people have this is minor but I would like to know if my doorbell is bad.
Hi @hoot_1947. Did you also lose power during this time, or was it only a wifi outage? I’m happy to see what information I can dig up regarding the expected behavior once I clarify that detail.
