My Elite doorbell stopped working the other day. It doesn't seem to have any power going to it. I have a smart home and the access point box is also dark, I have tried rebooting the router several times, Comcast box & router seem to be working okay. What am I missing?

Do you have a Ethernet hub in that box? Hub is bad maybe check power to hub if you have one or if useing the power injector check that also.

@profusive63924 if you got it from Amazon ordered new it says free tech support might be worth a call to see if you can get a replacement

@profusive63924 Oh by the way I checked specs on Amazon and I am unclear as to how it is being powered. It says it needs a 12v 1Amp adapter (most people have one around the house) or can be powered through one of the two built in ports must be the one labeled PoE but requires a separate PoE injector Or be connected to a PoE Switch. Frankly I am VERY unclear as to how it is connected and and not ready to rule out the power source as the problem what ever that might be. Any chance of a photo of the box where everything is located.

Seems like bad poe switch since access point and elite is off. Both require poe so I’d check the switch they are plugged into or look for 2 poe injectors.
