Ring camera audio with firewall
After I installed the firewalla blue, I noticed that the audio quality on all my Ring cameras worsened. The audio has choppy interference on top of the actual audio, making the audio almost unusable. The video seems fine. When I remove the ring device from monitoring, the issue goes away.
Does anyone else have this issue? Is there a fix?

Hello, yes, it is in simple mode. Here is some other data points:
- After disabling monitoring to the Ring device, the static sounds stopped occurring in the video playback. This means looking at recorded video, or live video did not have the interference.
- However, now when looking at live video, there is static sounds coming from the ring device ITSELF. This did not happen before. In other words, the audio interference is now showing up the ring device, not playback device, after turning off monitoring.
- Additionally, this only seems to happen when the Ring device and playback device are both on the same network, with the firewalla device. For instance, if I look at live video on my phone, but I am away from home, the audio static does not appear on either device.
The issue definitely seems tied to firewalla and monitoring.
I can try to set static IP's on these devices, but can you explain how this would affect the ARP spoofing? The ARP spoofing should not care if the IP is static or dynamic. If the IP were to change, that may affect it, but the problem happens every time, and DHCP would not refresh nearly that often.
