However as shown in the chart above, there are three main RSSI performance score regions. In the context of Ring, the closer the value is to 0 the better. In general, a higher RSSI is always better than a lower RSSI. Objects, walls and other barriers between the router and Ring result in lower received signal strength.The distance between the Wi-Fi router and Ring – the greater the distance the lower the signal.So if your RSSI yesterday was -70 dBm and today it’s -50 dBm, you could say that it improved by the difference or by 20 dB. dB can be used to indicate the difference between two numbers. dBm is an absolute number – just like Watt and in fact you can calculate one from the other.ĭB on the other hand, is a relative number and has no units. It will give you an estimate of what you can expect based on distance from the Wi-Fi router and walls or floors that are in between. A Ring doorbell has a range of around 160 feet or less.
