No where, they are useless

@acuate . agree. they are junk.

@acuate actually they work. So.

No they really dont. They just bog down your internet. A Mesh system is far superior. People that dont know about internet or computers get suckered into extenders cause they dont know better.

I have both Mesh and the Chime Pro, but neither reach a camera outside of my garage door. I placed the chime pro within 10 feet of the camera and still has the same RSSI as without, so for one, I agree that the Chime Pros are pretty useless, but at the same time, Mesh doesn’t reach as well as I originally thought either (Orbi-2 Satellites)

@acuate I have a google mesh WiFi system. Got the chime pro to work.  

Answer 2

In between

Answer 3

Better off getting a good wifi extender

No hes not they are useless as well

Answer 4

It’s extends the signal from the router. It would be better to get a good mesh system. I have had no problems since I bought eero

Answer 5

I have mine on a drawer. It works as well there as it did when it was plugged in. It's crap!  

Answer 6

It should be placed halfway between the router and the Ring device. Can you tell us what the RSSI of the device both without and with the Ring Chime.
