Thank you for your reply. Yes, I have a power outlet outside right next to the door. I could try moving the existing ring chime pro extender there to see if it improves the signal, although the signal from the router still has to pass thru the brick wall to get to the extender, but worth a shot. Not sure how well their extender would hold up outside exposed to the elements even though it's a covered patio at the front door. Thanks again.

I wouldn't do that. An extender isn't going to pass through the wall very well.
Reason I mentioned powerline is you could setup a powerline device/devices on that power circuit. They make wifi powerline devices. But again, its in the elements so you'd need to fashion some sort of protection for them.
