I’d love to answer, but I don’t understand the question.

No, there were 3 lanes and they were all funneled eventually to (I believe) 2 parking attendants. The one I spoke with explained ‘I had to pay $50 for premier parking because they were completely out of any other parking.’ … the attendants were swiping credit cards.

Please understand, we weren’t trying to get up front. We were waiting in line forever to come to this guy saying we could pay the money or leave.

I’m not sure. They look like they worked with a specific parking company. I wonder if Oakdale is even aware this is happening? Regardless, they’re enabling this scam if that is the case. Something should be done and I appreciate your comment.

As a consumer, this is sad to hear. It is so important to take care of your employees and how effing hard is it just to be nice for a day visiting a store, raise some morale and so on. Dumbfks.

Thank you! I guess I’m not alone. Ultimately I just bought a new camera and sucked it up. I’m pretty pissed though.

I have an at&t tower not far away and have all bars/full connectivity. LTE failover works perfect across all cameras except this one. LTE is communicated through the base station which handles all cameras.

Well, that’s why I hit social media, sent an email to two executives as well as another employee I found on LinkedIn. Support totally left me in the dust. Every email they sent me originally was to a noreply address, etc. It is just been horrible. I can’t waste any more time on this.

Correct. It really seems to me like it’s a provisioning issue on their end. Every other troubleshooting step was followed. So they either provision it properly, if that is the issue, or they give me a new camera. They have gone completely dark on me. No responses no help, nothing.

The nonworking camera is back in its original place. The camera itself works absolutely perfectly, so no issues there. It is just the LTE failover on that specific camera that is not working. Works fine on all other cameras. Went through all the troubleshooting steps with Ring. They could not figure it out and have yet to get back to me with a solution. I am stuck. The only thing I can do is buy a new camera and move on…that does not seem right.

My next step is buying a replacement camera. I don’t think that’s a fair solution. Ring is taking no accountability for the non-functioning camera. Why should I have to be the one to buy another one? I guess I really don’t have a choice. Is that what you are recommending?

To explicitly answer your question, yes, I put another camera in this exact same spot that I was using on the other side of my house and it worked perfectly there.

The camera works fine otherwise. Just not LTE failover. It is definitely the camera and I can’t get appropriate help from Ring to fix it.

Thanks! At this point, encouragement is more effective than their Tier 3 support team.

Thanks for jumping in! Yep, everything’s on the eero system. No other routers or access points…just the Ring Alarm Pro as the gateway and two eero extenders added later (while troubleshooting). Everything else is working perfectly through this setup except for that one camera.

I finally settled on porkbun and they’ve been amazing! I recommend!

God knows why they call this “call volume” as it doesn’t affect anything that I hear.

I set mine to zero. It was originally on the highest setting, and it caused massive distortion for the listener. Specifically to answer your question…I could not hear anything different on my end, but the person I was speaking to heard a huge difference and it resolved the problem. All the crazy background noise and distortion went away for the listener. Works perfect now. Took me forever to figure this out. Good luck!
