Now these houses are all at most 3000ft² and on one two three levels. After the same issue with the intermittent yellow connection light on the first handful I installed, I removed the extenders and have had no issues since.

But in the two dozen or so Ring Alarms I’ve installed, I’ve only needed the extender on two. I’d try this when you’re going to be around for a while, just to be sure, as you don’t want a sensor to drop offline while it’s set and you’re away. So if you’re having intermittent yellow connection light on the keypad, maybe try removing the extender for a few days to see if it improves/stabilizes, and also to ensure it doesn’t make any other sensors worse. Also, when updates occur and the paths are re-calculated, sometimes it might switch from the base to the extender, and now you’ve got a yellow light for a few days until it decides to re-map again and use the base again. If the extender is placed into the mix where it’s essentially too close, it can actually make the signal worse, as the device might use the extender when the base signal is more reliable, but a few feet further away. The base has a significantly more powerful transmitter and receiver, and works at much greater distances. Also, in many home installs, the range extender I’ve found to be more trouble than it helps. Its range is maybe 20ft if there’s one wall in the way, and 40ft line of sight. Just some thoughts from my experience installing them and owning the system.
