I currently have a ring doorbell that I pay a yearly fee for but I want to get away from Amazon and a subscription fee. I would prefer if it used the Wi-Fi and it was able to connect with my house doorbell. Edit: I'd also like to add that I would like it to have the ability to stream and record video.

When you say "wireless" do you also mean battery powered?

No I just mean Wi-Fi. I do have existing doorbell wires that I can hook up to it for power. I'd probably prefer not having a battery just so I don't have to worry about charging it ever.

Good, your options are way better than way.
