SPAMS After Power Outage
Whenever there's a slight power outage, Ring starts spamming me with alerts and emails. Anyone else see this?

This is STILL an ISSUE 2 years later. It doesn't happen every time the power drops. Like today, it just started doing it out of the blue. If I am not home, ill get 1000's of emails of battery backup / power restored. The way I stop it is by unplugging it, and plugging it back in. I could hear it chime as if the power is being lost and restored over and over again.

Its 2025 and this is still an issue. Brief power outage, the system just starts spamming my email and phone of lost / restored power, over and over and over again. The only way I have been able to stop it is by unplugging the base and plugging it back. Is there an option to remotely reboot the base?

OSo there is an option to REBOOT the Base Station - PANCAKE - DEVICES - ALARM BASE STATION - BASE STATION - DEVICE SETTINGS - ADVANCE OPTIONS - REBOOT BASE STATION. Does absolutely nothing. Device reboots, comes back up and its generating OFFLINE/ONLINE alerts every second again. Power to the device needs to be physically removed. I contacted RING support and they had no clue what to do. First they asked me to send someone over to remove the power then they didnt even know how to remotely reboot the device. So either I have to buy a WiFi plug to kill the power remotely, or I need to put the Base on a UPS. Otherwise there is no solution to this issue.

Hi @MBearden. Does this happen if you physically unplug the Base Station and then plug it back in? Or does this only happen during a power outage? As Marley mentioned, please check that the outlet the Base Station is plugged into is not loose and that the plug is firmly seated in the outlet. If there's a switch that controls the outlet in use, try a different outlet if possible.
