KHello! I have a Ring I purchased last June, it was one that was recalled, we have reinstalled the new way, it is Hardwired- but I am unhappy with my Doorbell it doesn’t hold a charge at all- I have Chan the settings to people only mode changed recording length, and it doesn’t take snapshots- but it still doesn’t stay charged, I know we can purchase a solar charger but I have a neighbor with the same Ring and there’s works properly, I really would like mine to work properly, I am hoping to exchange it for a new one, I think this one is a Lemon. Sincerely, Kathy

Be advised that I was told by Ring Customer Service that it is expected that Wired Ring Doorbell will lose connection every time there is a loss of power and the only resolution is to do the physical reset on the device. The Customer Service person acknowledged that there is incorrect information in Ring usage database that indicates Doorbells will auto reconnect once power is restored. I was told this is incorrect and that physical reset is required every time. I live in area that has brief power glitches all the time and thus my only solution is to do the physical reset process on the device. I find this totally unacceptable given all my other devices from Google, Apple, etc auto reconnect. Shame on Ring for selling junk.
