Ring Floodlight Cam is the first HD security camera with built-in floodlights, two-way talk and a siren alarm. Floodlight Cam shines the lights and starts recording as soon as motion is detected. And you'll also get an alert on your phone and tablet to let you know that someone’s at your home. When you answer the alert, you can see, hear and speak to people on your property from anywhere. Floodlight Cam connects to standard junction boxes and easily replaces existing wired floodlights. It also comes with a free 30-day trial of Ring Protect Plus, so you can review, save and share all your Ring videos at anytime, with anyone.

Mounted Under an Eave
on July 6, 2018
Posted by: ZooDog
from Near Nashville, TN
Verified Purchase:Yes
We have a Ring doorbell and a stick-up camera that overlooks the deck. Best Buy put the Ring Floodlight on sale so bought one for the garage / driveway. Some reviews questioned if it could be mounted under an eave. Yes it can, wasn't even that difficult. Just loosen the nuts that hold the lights and camera and re-position them. See my photo. I just installed it this morning but it seems to be working fine.

Way too Small
on July 15, 2017
Posted by: ZooDog
Verified Purchase:Yes
Just purchased this earlier today. I have average size wrists and hands. The Apple Watch band that came with the watch fits me without any problems. This one is way to small. I cannot get in on, cannot get it past my thumb to put it on. It's going back.

Great TV Set
on February 2, 2017
Posted by: ZooDog
Verified Purchase:Yes
We bought this to replace a similar size Sony LCD TV that was on the verge of dying. Best Buy delivered it. We hooked it up. Have not had any problems with it. It is in a relatively dark room and it has a great picture and adequate sound (we mostly play the sound through a 5.1 entertainment system).

Working Fine So Far

So far, I've only used it with a Windows 10 PC to read a CD ROM. It handled that w/o any problems.

I Trust Netgear Products
on February 2, 2017
Posted by: ZooDog
Verified Purchase:Yes
We had a Comcast repair tech here to repair a broken cable on the utility pole. He suggested that I would have better service with a newer cable modem. I looked at the reviews on-line and decided to go with this new Netgear CM1000 cable modem. It was easy to install and only took a few minutes to make the swap. I logged onto the Comcast web page and the rest of the install was automatic. Everything is functional now. I've always had good luck with Netgear products.

Had to get one stick-up camera replaced
on December 22, 2016
Posted by: ZooDog
Verified Purchase:Yes
It seemed like a good time to add some security cameras to our house, primarily to keep an eye on any packages that would be delivered for Christmas.
Pro: Simple to install and get up and running.
Con: One of the stick-up cameras worked ok inside when I checked everything out but quit working after a few hours when it was installed outside in the cold. I added a solar panel to it for power. I added a wifi extender between it and my router. It still had the same problem, it would work inside, not outside. I contacted the Ring product support people and after some "check this and verify that" I was sent a replacement. So far, the replacement is working OK.
The doorbell camera is supposed to be powered by the doorbell wiring. For unknown reasons, it ran on battery power for a few days last week. I popped it off, recharged the battery and put it back on. It's back to running on the doorbell wiring again. Not sure what happened there.
The other stick up camera has worked fine since the beginning.
The video quality is adequate. The cameras do not have any "night vision" capability. It is easy to check the cameras using the iPhone or iPad when we are away from home. The motion sensors are very sensitive even when it is too dark for the cameras to pick up anything. The live view is very handy. The cost of using their cloud storage service is $30/year per device ($90/yr for the three cameras in this package).
On the whole, I'm satisfied with the product and the service support I received in getting the one stick up camera replaced.

What is the firmware version on the BestBuy model? Please confirm that CM1000 comes with the updated firmware for the Comcast CMTS activation bug? https://community.netgear.com/t5/Cable-Modems-Routers/Netgear-CM1000-activation-woes/td-p/1191014

I didn't have any problems activating mine with Comcast. It has been working fine for several days now.

Does this allow wifi enabled devices to access internet wirelessly?

The CM1000 does not have wifi built in. You will need to use a wifi capable router with it.

The product is not working properly what should I do?

Start with the "troubleshooting" information in the manual. Also, contact your cable company to verify that it has been properly installed.

When will this be available for pre-order here at Best Buy? As of Jan 2, 2017 Amazon currently indicates it will be in stock to ship from them on Jan 5th, 2017.

It's available now. I bought mine last week.
