Do not buy Arlo
I had Arlo as well. They worked OK. I would recharge the batteries every few weeks. Things were fine for a while and then the company upped the cost for cloud storage. Decided to go with new cameras that do not require a subscription. Purchased TP-Link Tapo. Ended up getting their 2K C425 cameras al

Fixed Tapo camera network issues with Asus router (Asus RT-AX86S + Tapo C101)
Ando entrando al mundo de Tapo y una C425 me estaba dando mucha lata. Tuve que hacer algo similar con el router Asus que tengo. Deshabilitar "Smart connect", 802.11ax, la banda de 6Ghz, porque si no, me marcaba que el dispositivo solo se podía controlar de manera local. Esto para los que vayan a com

Which Tapo battery camera is the best??

Unable to reset TAPO C425
No worries! Yeah exact same camera the TAPO C425 unit only, no solar panel. The new one has given me issues but completely seperate ones unfortunately, a firmware update affected the sound but Support managed to fix that with a follow up update. I also had an incident where it just went off one day

Tapo cameras are such a disappointment.
I finally decided to switch all my tapo cams to eufy. Literally solved all my camera issues. The cameras are also capturing way more information than before.

Any security camera recommendations?
I have a solar powered tapo C425 up my field (approx 40M away) and I provide connection to it via an outdoor wireless access point - a Ubiquiti AC Mesh, though you could use any outdoor AP. Works great.
