Orbi w/Ring Stick Up Camera (battery)
Orbi RBR50 & RBS50 V2.2.1.210
Security WPA2-PSK [AES]
Ring iOS App v5.9.2
AT&T w/WiFi Assist turn off
I have a Ring Pro doorbell on the network with easy install and no operational issues...
I had problems connecting my Ring Spotlight cam. Apparently the Ring only supports Channels 1 through 11; whereas the Orbi supports Channels 1 through 13.
I changed the Orbi 2.4 from 'Auto' channel to a hard coded channel and voila the Ring could connect.
Thanks for letting us know. Hope you find a better solution.
I use D-Link DCS series cameras.

I found a video which helped me telnet into the Orbi and carve out the 2.4 vs. 5GHz, then connected my iPhone and the cameras to the 2.4GHz network. Even with that, no luck. Decided the effort wasn't worth it and returned all the cameras. The integrity and performacne of my network is a higher priority. I'll find another camera solution.
You're using D-Link DCS cameras? Which model(s)? I have 7 DCS-2630L's, and after going back to just one SSID for both 2.4 and 5GHz networks, I'm back to spurious connecton drops with my cameras. I went to split SSID's trying to resolve that problem, but now that I've swtiched back, my camera problems are back.

Glad you got it working. Enjoy.:smileywink:
