There was a problem filtering reviews right now. Please try again later.
I'm changing my review from 3 stars to 5 stars. In short, it was not the camera - it was my router.
Ring contacted me not once but twice wanting to help me with my lack of movement sensitivity. I thought the last thing I want to do is talk with customer service - any customer service. I think I even read a review or two that Ring customer service was "bad". So I ignored the first email. A second one came that read like they sincerely wanted to help me. With a heavy sigh I set up an appointment knowing full well I'd done everything possible to trouble shoot already and assuming this would be a complete waste of time. Well I was completely wrong. Even though I have one of the best routers on the market - Jason (Ring Customer Service) was able to tell on his end that the data transfer rate just wasn't fast enough. The signal was going through too much house. Just now, to test this I used a 50 foot long Cat7 cable and put the router in the middle of the house and suddenly the camera works just exactly as it should. Jason was a wealth of knowledge, he was a wealth of ideas that I hadn't though of (I won't say what I do for a living - but I "think" I know all there is to know about computers and technology). Jason sincerely wanted to correct the issue (AND HE DID) and was as polite as anyone could possibly be. I'm 53 years old and I've never had such a positive customer service experience (possibly partly because I avoid customer service like the plague) AND now I know the issue is not the camera - its the distance from the router and the amount of house the signal has to penetrate - which I can correct. The slowness was causing gaps and a delay in triggering motion. And it's not just his theory. I just proved it to be true. Jason, if you're reading this - outstanding job!!! Now that my issue is resolved I'll probably pick up some more ring cameras. My goal is complete coverage of the outside of the house.
I used to have a few inside D-Link cameras. They have all been disconnected and removed. I got to thinking, if the bad guy is looking at one of my D-Link cameras - he's already in the house and my family is already in danger. Better to have outside Ring cameras and avoid the break-in altogether.
Product Idea: I would like to see some sort of Ring mount extension. It would be something like a foot and half long and the normal mount would mount to this extension allowing you clear some obstacle and see around a corner. It would be made of aluminum and have a three point mount that would be no wider at the base than a normal sized front porch post. It would come in white or black and be priced reasonably. Three points at the base for stability. Think about the arms you see cameras hanging from that are mounted on a pole.
Original Review
==================================================================================
It seems to me the software is different as far as how "movement" is detected between the older models and this latest model. I put movement in quotes because just turning on the porch light or a car driving by and the headlights sweeping across the yard will trigger an alert with sensitivity set to medium and the motion detection area set for only about half of the front yard ( the half closest to the house ). I installed this new one above the patio and under the second story deck. I never get an alert from that one unless I get within approx. 20 feet of it. I have sensitivity set to the max and the detection area set to everywhere but the under side of the deck. Turning on the patio light does not trigger an alert. Turning on the deck light above - which lights up the back yard pretty well does not trigger an alert. A large racoon getting within 10 feet and climbing up the deck post and on to the deck also does not trigger an alert. I wish it did. That was a big part of why I bought it. I just happened to view the camera and saw the racoon milling around, looking for something to eat and climbing the deck.
I have an outlet out side. I could plug it in out there. However, I tested this. I can unplug it before it can send a video to the cloud.
So I drilled a whole though the house and powered it from inside. The smallest drill bit you can get away with is 7/16 to accommodate the plug that goes into the camera. I thought about cutting the wire and running that though the wall and then reconnecting the plug but I didn't attempt that.
Also, a little puzzled why there is such a large hole on the back of the camera. I the cord goes through this hole. I guess it's to accommodate the largest imaginable Cat6 cable plug.
Additionally, the arm the camera hangs on doesn't seem stiff enough. There is a screw that can be tightened down. I tightened it. I tried shaking the camera a bit and the inertia would easily move the camera. So I installed it so the arm attached to the base at the top and the camera hangs off of it at the bottom. This configuration gives the smallest footprint horizontally. If there is too much to work with under a covered patio - you'll have a bird building a nest on it. My main complaints are it seems a little on the flimsy side. I don't trust the arm to stay put. The camera seems too heavy for it. There is a huge hole on the back of the camera which I imagine bugs my try to use as a hideout or maybe try to ride out the winter in. For some reason the sensitivity on max does trigger an alarm until a 235 pound 6 foot 1 man gets within 20 to 25 feet in full daylight. The night vision does not seem as good as the door bell.
What I like: picture quality. Nice app. Would I buy it again? Yes, but just barely.
Then, I looked at the wireless cameras available, and decided that is how I want to go. However, I don't really want to trust my security to WIFI, so I decided I wanted something in the middle. I needed a simple installation and something that would be wired ethernet, and that is when I found the PoE (Power over Ethernet) version of the Ring Stick-up camera. This means that I only have to run a single ethernet cable to both power the camera, and get the video signal from the camera at the same time.
I have a Ring at my front door, and the WiFi is actually a bit of an issue with HiDef video, even though it can easily handle the signal, it seems to have latency, and dropped frames where the wired cameras don't.
So, I found a $34 PoE switch which will power 4 cameras, and I connected it to the main switch in my basement. I ran the ethernet cable from the switch to the back door, and put a single hole in the wall. The mount that comes with the camera is great, they give you everything you could possibly need, and it goes up with a few simple screws. I used caulk to make the hole waterproof, and the camera was up and running.
Next, I setup the alert zones. The camera will notify you if it sees motion in these zones, only. Anything else is ignored, an it actually does a really good job. Night vision is incredible, too. I setup two zones, one in front of the door, and one on the stairs to my deck. There is no getting in where this camera won't see you. It only stored video when the zones are tripped, or if you ask to see the camera live. Also, if someone is there the camera acts as a two-way intercom, and if you really don't like the person you see, you can set off a siren from the camera itself.
The kit comes with a standard Micro-USB and wall plug, if you want to power it that way, and use WIFI. It also comes will a LONG version of this, with an outdoor power supply that is mounted to the wall, and water proof. However, if you use PoE these are useless, and I left them in the box.
If you like this, and you think it would work, but you are scared of the PoE option, do not worry, it is incredibly simple. If you have any wired ethernet at home you are already setup for this. You just add either a single PoE injector, or a switch like I got, connect up to your existing Hub/Switch, and to the camera, and you are done. The injector/switch will require a power plug itself, but all switches and hubs do, this is not something special.
This is the PoE Switch that I purchased "BV-Tech 4 Port PoE+ Switch". This will power 4 of these stick-up cams. It is also fast enough for the bandwidth for the 4 cameras, too. Easily. The PoE is only 100Mbit, not 1000Mbit. So, I only plug in things that need the power into this switch, everything else in my house runs at 1000Mbit. But, even if the camera took 10Mbit, you could run 10 on this switch. The camera really only needs about 2Mbit, so this is plenty.
I will add a separate review for the switch later.
In summary, if you need a camera, you can't go wrong. You will get pop-up alerts on your smartphone if there is motion, and you can answer it and speak with the person you see. You can also start a siren, if you don't want the person there. If you can run ethernet you should definitely use the PoE option, but you can run this camera on WiFi with the included power cables until you have the PoE setup. So, you don't have to wait to buy this camera.
Once I had the cameras setup I was able to now use my Galaxy S9 Note to get them configured. The video imaging from these cameras are amazing (very clear in both day and night modes). The best thing I like about these cameras are their small profile design. Crooks entering my home will not spot them easily. Just for your information, these camera's are independent from the main security system, and will record and send motion alerts, so you will need to decide if you want them to record ONLY when the main system alerts when active, or provide continuous recording and alerting. I shut down continuous recording and motion alerts since I did not want them to continuously record video when my main system is disarmed. Don't want images of my wife walking around in her undies on the WEB, LOL.
All in all these are highly recommended and a great addition to my security system.
