They only use the bandwidth when they are motion triggered which was a large part when I am using them. The majority of the issues we see with people are because it is placed outside of a good wifi signal.

I don't have personal experience, but I have found customers with Ring doorbells to be high 
maintenance customers.  They complain about a lag of a few seconds in triggering video to 
their phone, which somehow they think must be an Internet problem.  The Ring doorbells also 
seem to need a lot of upstream bandwidth, like >1 Mbps per camera, so that people with 
more than one of them can max out the upstream on their Internet connection.  I'm not sure 
why you need to see the UPS guy's butt walking away from your door in 1080p high def.  Maybe 
this is based on earlier generations of the Ring product and they have improved.  One 
customer recently reported that the police had caught a burglar based on license plate info 
from a neighbor's Ring doorbell, so maybe that is more of a "ringing" endorsement.

Chuck probably has FTTH, so upstream bandwidth may not be a scarce commodity.

So I will put that in the “less than ringing endorsement” column.

*Subject:* Re: [AFMUG] Inexpensive Surveillance Cameras I was looking
hard at Blink as well. Is there a way on iPhone app to switch accounts easily?  
Say I have one blink account with tower site cameras etc. I want to let certain 
other coworkers to have access to these cameras. Say I also have an account 
that has cameras in a dog pen in back yard at my house etc. I only want myself 
to see these cameras. Will that work with blink?

        Have customers asking too.
        What is everyone using?  Amazon cloud cameras look appealing but
        I see
        no way to share camera access with other users for certain cameras
        without sharing them all.
