Hi Oskar,

We’re sorry to hear about the connectivity issues you’re experiencing.

If your cameras frequently go offline, there may be several possible causes. First, please check the Wi‑Fi signal strength and ensure it is not too weak, as this can affect performance. Distance from the router, physical obstacles, and even strong Wi‑Fi interference nearby may impact the connection.

We also recommend performing a speed test, as a low upload speed can cause the cameras to lose connection: https://www.speedtest.net

Dear Liam,

We’re sorry to hear about your experience.

If you have an Arlo Secure Plus subscription, all eligible devices should be automatically added to your plan at the time of purchase, provided they are assigned to the same Location. To check if they're added, open the Arlo Secure app, tap on the profile icon > select the Location with the plan under "Locations and Plans" > tap Plan. If your cameras are connected to the plan, you should see them there.

If your cameras are connected to an Arlo Secure plan, but do not record to the cloud, please check the rules for the currently selected Mode and ensure that video recording is enabled. You can find step‑by‑step instructions on how to review and adjust these settings in the following support article:

Hi Stephen,

We’re sorry to hear that you’ve been experiencing issues connecting your SmartHub, and we apologize for the inconvenience caused.

If your Arlo SmartHub is not being discovered during setup, please first ensure that it is properly connected to the internet. Check the SmartHub’s LED indicator and confirm that it is solid green. If the Internet LED is solid amber, this indicates a network connection issue. In that case, please make sure the Ethernet cable is securely connected to the SmartHub and your router, and confirm that your internet connection is working by testing another device. You may also try rebooting the SmartHub after making any network adjustments.

Next, please ensure that your computer or mobile device is connected to the same network as the SmartHub during the setup process.

For a complete list of troubleshooting steps, please visit the following support article:
