#PANIC BUTTON RING PRO#

ThatвЂ™s mainly because the Ring Alarm Pro has to be the gateway device for your home Wi-Fi, and for some setups (including my own), the included Eero 6 dual-band router is just not powerful enough. If you already have a capable mesh Wi-Fi setup and a substantial number of smart home devices - this is not the hub for you.

The inclusion of an Eero 6 router makes the Ring Alarm an excellent solution for homeowners who want a security system with cameras and are still using their ISP-supplied combined router and modem. The chief complaint I hear about Ring is the poor connectivity of its cameras and video doorbells - something often solved by adding better Wi-Fi in the home. It makes a lot of sense for Amazon to marry its leading smart security hardware brand with its excellent consumer-level mesh Wi-Fi company. But it has one significant flaw that means if you already have a substantial smart home setup, youвЂ™ll want to give it a pass.Д«uy for $299.00 from Best Buy Buy for $299.00 from Amazon The Ring Alarm Pro is the next level of smart home security, a near-perfect marriage of everything you need to set up a smart home and then some, all for under $300. But they still havenвЂ™t turned on that Zigbee radio. This is the ultimate smart home hub: in addition to the security capabilities of the previous model, thereвЂ™s now a built-in Eero mesh router for better Wi-Fi in your home, an LTE radio for whole-home internet backup, USB type-C connections for external battery backup, a Ring Lighting bridge to connect your smart lighting, and a microSD card slot for local storage and processing of video. With the Ring Alarm Pro ($249 for the base station, $299 for a starter kit) the company has done just that. So, IвЂ™ve been watching the evolution of this product with interest over the last few years, waiting for the moment Ring finally united its smart home and home security offerings in this powerful piece of tech. I also admire Ring Alarm for leading the charge in disrupting the tired, expensive home security industry, thanks to its rock bottom prices, good hardware, and lack of long-term contracts. Since the first generation of the product launched in 2018, itвЂ™s been packed with useful smart home radios, including Bluetooth, RF, cellular, Zigbee, and Z-Wave, some of which are capable of connecting to a nice selection of smart home and security devices. Mainly because the inexpensive, easy-to-use security system is an excellent smart home hub in disguise.
