Although this is the (al)most expensive option around, I can say it's been a great product. It's been rock solid since I bought it, even after a firmware update. Great range even through the exterior wall of a house.
The only glitch I had is the default setup is for 2 single 5Gz bands and changing that to be the dynamic setup with only one network name forced all my devices to relearn the network connection.
Have not had to contact customer service this time around, which is good as that would easily take 1 or 2 stars off based off of prior experience.
I did consider the top dog Asus router but BB didn't carry it and there was a great sale on this Netgear.

If you're looking for a video doorbell and you have decent wi-fi coverage, then this is an outstanding product.
If you actually want to use this for security purposes you're going to be disappointed.
Let's start with mounting. The kit dose actually include everything that you need, which is great. However, if you're going to mount the unit to brick, you absolutely have to have an impact drill. A regular drill will take you forever or overheat the bit until it melts. And the 4 mounting points required does make it more tricky to get holes in the brick face and not the mortar joint, but the included level makes it easy to get it mounted correctly - measure 4 or 5 times and drill only once.
The product records video and sound very well, great for people standing right next to the unit. I've recorded footsteps of the UPS guy delivering to the house next door, so in that way it's a great product. But you won't be seeing facial features or license plates much beyond 5 feet away. The wide angle lens is awesome to capture a large area if you want to see more action.
The real issues is that the motion activation is still very much a work in progress. If you want to be able to have the unit start recording the minute a person sets foot on your property, you'll be very disappointed. At best the unit will capture people when they are about 2' away from the unit, regardless of the distance / sensitivity level you have set. I can pick up cars pfrom 60' away with no issue because of the large heat signature. But a family with dogs walking by the house at 15' never register. Lawn equipment will set it off as well, but not as consistently as a car.
And there is also a 5-10 second delay from when the unit captures motion to when it starts recording, so it's critical that the unit be mounted at a point where people cannot walk past it. And depending on the mounting location, the 1st 1-2 seconds are washed out by lens flare as the unit gets the light metering corrected and recording usable video - which is 40 seconds long by default and not adjustable unless you answer the unit and then you can record as long as you like.
If you're not on your home wi-fi, there is usually about a 20 second delay from when the unit kicks on to when you are notified and can actually connect for a live stream. So if someone comes on your porch and leaves quickly, you won't have a chance to interact with them.
Then there is the issue of battery life. The 1 year specified by Ring is based on 2 activations a day. When you're getting 20 a day because cars are setting it off then you should only expect 45-60 days until it needs a recharge.
Overall, this is still a work in progress and I hope the Ring team will be continue to push new firmware to improve upon the features and give more user control to adjust settings to better meet their specific needs.
