There’s a Ring binding that many users have been testing for over a year. You might want to check it out if you haven’t already tried it.
I understand your frustration over IFTTT, but I also think that you’re making a strong assumption about how the connector works without fully understanding the issue (I don’t claim to grasp it, either). we would all prefer for IFTTT to work, but the vast majority of OH users are happier that myopenhab.org has been far more reliable since the change was made.
Personally, I just found ways to rework my system so that I don’t need IFTTT, but that’s not going to be possible for everyone. Hopefully the Ring binding gets you a little closer to that.
