U have nothing except battery based WiFi then, with every power outage it will also wait till AP’s work again so not going to be faster, maybe u can use Zigbee Extender 3 for a stronger signal?

Ring?

At my old house i used ring with battery and our IFTTT driver.  Worked well.  Only had to charge it once every 4-6 months.  What was nice was that it emailed me when the battery was low and needed charging.  Charged up in about 4 hours from memory.

At my new place i still use the same ring doorbell buts its permanently powered using the old doorbells cabling.

Our IFTTT driver works for alot of stuff but one of the use cases (at least in my house) is ring doorbell press and motion

Blackwire also have a ring doorbell driver as well which they sell.

Just installed a Ring with the Blackwire driver. It all works very well together, almost no delay to C4. Wasn't a fan of having to use another app and their subscription service, but it;s pretty slick. 

Thanks!

But you still you have to use ring’s app for video conferencing.

Once the IFTTT driver is installed you can do this yourself.  Our website has a wealth of information including examples on integration between IFTTT and numerous products and services.
