Does turning off Wi-Fi stop Ring camera from recording?

Yes, turning off WiFi will disable a Ring camera. This is because Ring cameras do not have any local storage capability and must stream everything to the Ring cloud. Without a good WiFi connection they cannot connect to Ring's servers to save video, stream live, or send notifications of any kind.
