Am considering switching back to Arlo as my current camera from other brand broke. But it seems like the brand has gone downhill according to this subreddit?
I have Arlo Ultra 2 cameras and the 5000 base station and an essential and 2 pro 4s along with a wifi doorbell. All working well together over WiFi to base. However, I am switching to NVR system to save on subscription fees.

end of vmc3030 working at all?
done this already, TEN times each camera, still nothing. they clearly have disabled the support. two of them becoming completely useless at the identical time following a base station reboot, they locked them out. If you have VMC3030's that still work, count your days, they will stop soon too. (yes

Mine only had this sporadic with the camera’s connected to my own wifi (doorbell and pro4’s) The ultra and ultra2’s have it more frequently, my guess is the base stations are garbage and don’t have a good reconnect mechanism. What normally works is rebooting the base station here, but not always (ha

Arlo is terrible
+1 Our family has been using Arlo for about six years now… even upgraded the entire set of cameras to the Ultra 2 + added the doorbell. I don’t know what to tell anyone, but it just works for us. I know there are products with better features, but this meets our needs atm. 🤷♂️

Finally giving up on Arlo
What baffles me is the mass amount of positive reviews?!? Been with Arlo for a few years now - since Arlo battery to now the Ultra 2. The issues have always stayed the same! The only thing Arlo seems to be good at is having the same issues on every model. No matter how good my internet is or how clo

Finally giving up on Arlo
We had someone break into our garage. We have some things that were stolen on camera and clearly an amount of time that they went in and out but there are quite a few gaps that Arlo missed. For example going in the garage twice in a row with no evidence of them exiting. The way we have camera covera

Finally giving up on Arlo
The Arlo 2 was only released in 2021 or 2022 I think? 🤔 I remember I bought my Arlo Ultra 1st gen in 2020-2021 and the ultra 2 came out shortly after that. They were expensive at the time. I recently bought 2 - 3 camera kits on sale for less than it would have cost to replace 4 batteries. If your ca
