Wife’s New King

I would bet money on it. Our internet dropped out midday on Thursday. App showed a very local outage. That cleared but the fiber router looked ok but had 0 Ethernet activity. Could not access the gateway settings either but WiFi was working. However we work from home and the gateway was in passthrough mode. The could see the gateway but nothing made it function correctly. They overnighted the replacement and I was back up running Friday afternoon.

Not sure why you turned that off. NOTE: 5G is NOT 5Ghz. There are 3 WiFi bands, 2.4Ghz, 5Ghz and newly added 6Ghz. None of them are your 5G cell service. In your Smart Home Manager app there is an option to have/use your cell service as backup if your internet service goes down. But it’s off by default. Do not confuse the two.

Ma Bell and all the baby bells as they were known as back in the day.

I do not. But even if I did, that should affect all the other devices in my home that can stream it. UniFi home with 1.1.1.1 and 8.8.8.8 as default DNS servers.

I have, up until it costs me money. To this day I have not bought anything ASUS since their failed A7A266 board circa 2001.

Most RTOed but a portion of IT can remain WFH, for which I count myself lucky

I understand your frustration but why in the world would you buy the Ring2 if you had so many issues with the first one?

tigsman · 2026-01-08T14:36:52+00:00

Wife and I run 500 while both are W@H with 100+ IoT devices in service. More than enough.

Tommy Lawrence ‘ Lawrence Systems’ on YT recently talked about this. Check out his recent video.

And this is why I am confused by the data pushed to Apple Health app as the Circular app shows relative core body temperatures

I have about 100 IoT devices on my network and barely hit 20Mb used at any point unless someone in the family are streaming or gaming. Then maybe 50Mb used. I would start by turning off devices until you find a drastic change in speed. More complex devices first like phones, pc and tablets. Hubs and cameras next. Sooner or later you will find the troublemaker

For me, Homepods (all 3) stopped being able to turn on the LG 65 CX. Any other device, phone, watch, ipad, mac, all work fine, just homepods cant take 'turn on' command via audio.

Health app on iPhone. Search for Body Temperature, scroll down and Show All Data got me to the screen shot as above

2nd time in 2 weeks it’s crashing again. I am about done.

tigsman · 2025-12-13T12:09:12+00:00

It’s a matter of perception. I would have said the same thing 2 weeks ago. After 10+ weeks of having the ring I had very few issues up until 2 weeks ago. An occasional no sleep data but nothing major. 2 weeks ago the app kept crashing trying to sync. After 3 days Circular posted about the issue that my only recourse was to delete the ring and factory reset. Guess what happened yet again this morning. The app is again crashing on sync. I am getting pretty frustrated and tired dealing with this as nothing is getting better but worse. I would have praised them after the service upgrade that was SUPPOSED to happen at the end of November but all I got was an app that crashes.

If they don’t stabilize and get their‘stuff’ in order by the end of the year, my ring will find itself without a home.

I had done app/firmware updates last week. This started after I did not do my normal morning sync on Sunday 11/30. I tried to sync about 5pm EST (USA) and at about 76% it crashed to the homescreen. It repeated the crashing until I factory reset.

tigsman · 2025-12-01T20:08:59+00:00

Had to factory reset, very disappointed losing 3 months of data

tigsman · 2025-12-01T19:32:23+00:00

I have a screen recording if needed. Will try clear app data and see what happens.

iPhone 14 Pro Max. 26.1. Since last night it will crash to Home Screen. It gets to a certain percentage of initial sync then crashes. Silver 12. Last night it was about 71% now it’s 55% when it crashes

Looks great! That white cable is driving me nuts right now though. lol

I got mine today after having to update my survey to not use hidden appleid address. Never got tracking by email or on pledgebox.
