Hi DINA.
Thank you for taking the time to share your experience with us. Your experience with Ring is our top priority, and it is important to us that when investing in our products, they meet your needs and expectations. The Ring Chime Pro is designed to work in many environments to provide you with peace of mind and security. Rest assured, we hear you and are here to offer you some help.
It sounds like the device is not performing as intended. Even with your Chime Pro, your router is still your main source of connection for your Ring device. Ideally, the maximum distance between the router and your device is 20-25 feet with the Chime Pro about halfway between the Ring device and your router. If possible, try moving the router closer to the device. Also, make sure your router is not in a closet or behind furniture, like a sofa, so the router has an unobstructed signal.
At Ring, your safety and security is our top priority. It is normal for electrical devices to feel warm to the touch. We have included a link here to the safety and information page for the Ring Chime Pro (2nd Gen.): https://ring.com/support/articles/21o4j/Important-Product-Information-Chime-Pro-2nd-Gen. If the device appears to be damaged, discontinue use immediately. If you still have the device in your posession, feel free to reach out to Ring Customer Support for assistance.

Additionally, if you have not already, please check out our Ring Community forum where other Ring users like yourself have an open discussion platform to share their experiences, as well as solutions to potential causes for concern: https://community.ring.com/.
Thank you,
Melissa from Ring.
