Easy solution, jam the wifi signal while moving the mat. Added benefit of making them more concerned that the house is haunted. If the houses are close enough (likely, hoa so suburbs) you could just hook it to a basic wall-wart timer that actives at 3 and deactives at 3:05, and have it + jammer plugged in at the closest outlet to neighbors front door. Ring doesn't have a wired ethernet version to fix this vulnerability.

...why are you looking at me like that?

    Yeah, good idea. Commit a felony offense to cover the tracks of your late night trashcan shenanigan...

    There are radio nerds out there who are extremely interested in RF noise and will absolutely triangulate and report a signal jammer.

    How much time does one need to triangulate a signal these days? Asking for a friend

    Hypothetically, near instantly. Realistically, I don't think someone is going to bother to triangulate a random burst in the 2.4 and 5ghz bands, but someone logging radio traffic for shits and giggles would certainly notice 5-10 minutes bursts of noise early in the mornings saturating the band (you'd need to do the whole band as modern WiFi will channel hop for the best signal).

    You don't have to jam it. You can spam it with DEAUTHs from anything that will run aircrack.
