Need some help with Orbi and Ring Doorbell 2
Hi everyone. I know this subject has been talked about on different posts in the forum but I'm trying to post a new one because I don't know if there has been a clear cut solution. Like many others, my Ring Doorbell does not work how it should with Orbi. Ring says the solution is to put in a separate wireless AP because Ring Doorbell and cameras won't work well with a mesh network. I've read about setting up port forwarding for Ring. Some people say that is a solution. If it is, can anyone provide step by step instructions on how I should go about doing this? I've also disabled 20/40Mhz coexistence but that did not work. Any help would be appreciated. I've just made a bunch of changes to my services including home security and thought Ring was a good solution. Something very simple has turned in to a headache. Any suggestions would be great. Thanks everyone in advance!
