Doorbell chime

[Rehughes_632765347885158]

Just received my new WIFI doorbell. I found that where I wanted to plug the chime in would not work. The doorbell and chime apparently have a strength of signal issue. I had to move the chime to an outlet just inside the front door for the chime signal to reach it when the doorbell button is pressed. Even if you could purchase a second chime to use elsewhere in the house, I don’t think the signal from the doorbell would reach it.

Like some other posts I have seen, I think that the doorbell should be updated so that it would ring the doorbell chime that came with the home.

@rehughes_632765347885158 I had an issue with the wall socket. Obviously there are sockets that interfere with the signal the doorbell sends. In my case the chime did not work in a socket in plain sight of the doorbell, but it works several rooms farther away through thick walls. Very weird.
Try different sockets, try even extension chords.

I've just bought a Reolink doorbell because the Ring Pro (PoE) version is ridiculously expensive.

I need a few extra chimes. It seems that for over a year they're unavailable, and I noticed that Lorenz locked the discussion about this. Why would the discussion be locked? It seems Reolink doesn't want customers discussing this issue.

I'm regretting this purchase already

I saw a number of customers who successfully paired Kerui chimes. Just a few bucks.

Note that doorbell can take up to 5 chimes.

Do you want to sell it back to me?

For those with the issue of the chime not syncing, I ran into all the same issues and followed all your steps to no avail. Then I took a break and tried again. I reset the chime. I did not put it into pairing mode. went to the app and it had found the chime. Seems to be the story of my entire setup, but it works now.

@KennyG
I was also having the same issue pairing the chime. After several failed attempts of resetting it and trying to pair I ended up resetting the doorbell and re-linking to my router with 2.4 GHz instead of 5 GHz. Followed the set up instructions again and everything works. We now have a chime in the house.
