If my WIFI signal goes down (happens frequently) will the regular doorbell ring and the regular Open button in my intercom will open the door?

It is a cheap wifi card that they use. The whole thing is not dependable at all! I am on my second unit.

The Doorbot was the biggest waste of money for me. It never works, wifi or not. When we hooked it up, it worked for about a day. My wife has tried to get our money back, but all the company does is send other pieces of equipment to try. I would not recommend this to anyone.

Mine does the same thing sometimes but not enough to bother me. It's not even the sound I set it on. Since it is wireless I would guess that it's picking up an electronic signal from the neighborhood like a garage door, car door, etc.

The device beeps if it loses the connection. The mobile device will do the same.

i think so, i sold my home and the doorbell worked perfect. i tried to just get an off-brand but nothing fit or worked so spent the money and glad i did. I remember it working on all the sysytems - mine was out of data but still gets used so (i would replace if i was just buying my hours.

Mine responds from the next room only if there is little or no background noise. Even though it responds, it rarely gets the command I give it correctly. I hope it will learn over time. if not, it is just a gimmick.

Yes, the connection is over the internet, not directly to wifi, so the commands to open/close come from the servers at chamberlain.com

I honestly haven't had it all that long, however, I did check my door after receiving your question and I have not noticednoticed any problems to this point. Hope it works just as well for you.

If you open the back of the receiver or transmitter, set all of them to the same to match and be sure you are in range it should work..pretty easy. If too many frequencies between this will cancel it out. So test them close range. Should work. I did have one faulty receiver and had to send back. Now they both work great. One up stairs, one down stairs and doorbell at back and front door. Good luck!

No. It will chime only once. If the door closes and opens again it will chime again.

This is not a wireless door station. This is a 2 wire door intercom. The door station does have a lock release however requires those 2 conductors to function.

Yes. Make sure when you are adjusting the sender and receiver that you are not standing in the path of the signal, or you will create such interference and signal deterioration that you may think the device is not working. It will go through walls and ceilings, but not through people.

There is a light that turns on when it sends the signal. Best to test it yourself with all doors and windows shut. Bear in mind that batteries lose power when they are cold, especially ones that are marginal, so the best testing you can do to determine if the battery needs replacement is when it is below freezing outside. Also - the range of this push button is dependent on the doorbell receiver according to Honeywell.

No, my phone works some times,it cuts you off & doesnt even ring at times.Goes straight to voice mail.Also gets a lot of busy signals.

yes I have one upstairs and one downstairs. The only problem I have it that the chimes are off so when the doorbell rings it sounds terrible, but heck at least I know someone is at the door. The other problem I had was that I had no idea my neighbor had the same unit so every time someone rang her doorbell, mine would ring also. The same would happen to her so we'd see each other opening our doors. It took us about 2 weeks of thinking someone was playing 'ring and run' before we both realized we had the same doorbell. LOL It was an easy fix though and now it's all good.

It is a typical Bluetooth signal, so it depends. Bluetooth standard protocol is 5-30 meters. I can have my phone in another room with the door closed and the signal is great.

I had it get out of sync and show the door closed when it was opened. When I clicked to open the door, it closed. About the same time, the gateway lost communication with the door so I don't know if resetting the gateway or opening and closing the app reset the app's brains but when it came back online, it knew correctly if the door was close/open. So, jury is still out.

Automatically, no. You have to push the button for it to reconnect. And it drops the connection typically after 5 or 10 minutes of non-use.
