Review on 🚪 Arlo Essential Wired Video Doorbell - HD WiFi Camera, 180° Field of View, Night Vision, 2-Way Audio, Easy Installation (existing doorbell wiring required), Black - AVD1001B by Hesham Peltier

Installed twice. Installed for the first time with the following problems: 1. When the doorbell rings, it is not a mechanical bell. In the best-case scenario, you'll get a ring.2. When the doorbell rings, your phone RINGS. No options for text. Phone mute mutes the internal ringtone.3. The doorbell can ONLY be installed in 2.4GHz WiFi. It doesn't work on 5Ghz.4. Sometimes the motion sensor turns on. Sometimes not. Sometimes he decides that at 5am he sees the lights of a garbage truck on the street out of range and thinks they are people in the traffic area. Sometimes you ring the doorbell and it rings. Then he might not call for hours. This is on a transformer that meets the recommended specifications and the device is plugged in and has power.7. The motion detector didn't work at first. I am leaving a service request. You need a few days to reply. Meanwhile, a few days later, the movement decided to start its own work (somewhat and very contradictory). The support team "misinterpreted" each of my issues/questions so they could just give me a standard answer and link in an email. It's great when the standard answer really applies to problems. Before purchasing, you will be told that after the 3-month trial, you need to pay a monthly subscription if you want to record videos. Otherwise it will only get the live feed.7. "Live" - well, it notifies you, but you have to enter your passcode or fingerprint to open the app. By that time, when you open everything and the view appears, people will already leave. You can then wait another 15 seconds to watch the video to see who rang your doorbell and, if you prefer, go to their house or call them. installation and I removed everything and tried again. This time: 1. The mechanical doorbell still only rings. No ding dong.2. The device cannot connect to 1Gb WiFi when the router is within 4 feet. Everything else in the house can be found. It couldn't. The module cannot be installed. He can see the whole person and only a small "fish eye". So I'm done with this Arlo "fun". I uninstalled it, reinstalled the old doorbell, and tomorrow I'm going to return it and get the ring doorbell. I need something that really works. I was having trouble with ding-dong-ditch so I thought maybe something in the install, uninstalled everything and tried again. This time: 1. The mechanical doorbell still only rings. No ding dong.2.
