Step Five - Specify your location
If this is your first time setting up a Ring device, you will receive a request from your phone informing you that the Ring app wishes to use your phone’s location services to pinpoint your location. Allowing the app to do so will assist with inputting your address.
Enter your address information into the app, then confirm it.
If you have established a location previously, you can select it from the list of your locations.
Note: Without a specific location, certain features of your Stick Up Cam will not work properly.
Step Six - Choose where your Stick Up Cam will be installed
Select either “Indoors” or “Outdoors”, based on where you plan to install your Stick Up Cam.
If you chose “Indoors,” select whether or not your Stick Up Cam will be facing a window.
Step Seven - Name your device
Select a specific name for your Stick Up Cam Wired to distinguish it from other Ring devices on your account. You can choose one of the default names that are suggested, or you can enter your own by selecting “Custom…” at the bottom of the list.
Step Eight - Select how your Stick Up Cam will be powered
You can power Stick Up Cam in one of two ways:
* Plug it into a socket (with USB)
* Plug it into an Ethernet using the PoE adaptor. 
Step Nine - Put your Stick Up Cam Wired into Setup Mode
Your Stick Up Cam will enter Setup mode after being plugged in. When the light on the front of your Stick Up Cam begins flashing blue, tap “The Light is Flashing” in your Ring app to continue to the next step.
If your Stick Up Cam does not go into Setup mode automatically after powering on, press and release the orange button under the bottom cover of your Stick Up Cam Wired.
Step Ten - Select how your Stick Up Cam will connect to the internet
Your Stick Up Cam can connect to the internet in two different ways:
* Ethernet
* Wifi
Using Ethernet to connect your Stick Up Cam requires an Ethernet cable and a working Ethernet port.
* If your Stick Up Cam is powered with the PoE Adaptor and connected to your router, your device can use this connection to connect to the internet via Ethernet. 
* You can also connect via wifi if you are not able to connect the PoE Adaptor to your router.
* If your Stick Up Cam is powered with USB, you can still use Ethernet to connect your device to the internet by connecting your Stick Up Cam to Ethernet in addition to USB.
If you do not have an Ethernet connection, or would prefer to connect to the wifi in your home, select
wifi
in your Ring app.
Step Eleven - Connect to your Ring device
iOS: Tap
Join
when the Ring app asks to join the Ring wifi network.
Android: Your device should automatically connect to the Ring wifi network.
If your device does not automatically connect to the Ring wifi network, or if you chose to continue without scanning in step four, please follow the steps below:
* Press the home button on your phone to leave the Ring app.
* Navigate to the
Settings
app, then tap

* “Ring-” followed by the last six digits of the MAC ID.
* “Ring Setup” followed by the last two digits of the MAC ID.
* Once connected, close your “Settings” app and return to the Ring app.
Step Twelve - Connect your Stick Up Cam to your wifi
If you are using Ethernet to connect your Stick Up Cam to the internet, you can skip this step and proceed to step thirteen.
If you are using wifi to connect your Stick Up Cam to the internet, please follow the steps below:
Be sure you have your wifi password ready.
* Select your wifi network.
* If you have more than one wifi network, select the network closest to where you will be installing your Stick Up Cam.
* Enter your wifi password and press
Continue.
Note: After connecting to the internet, your Stick Up Cam may update its internal software. While performing an update, the light on the front of your device will flash blue. When the blue light stops flashing, you can tap “Continue” in the Ring app and begin using your Stick Up Cam.
Step Thirteen - Test your device
Once your Stick Up Cam has completed its update and setup, configure your Stick Up Cam’s motion zones, then open Live View to test your camera.
