User Manual
Out of range
Make sure that your camera is close enough to receive a strong Wi-Fi signal. The range of
your router’s Wi-Fi signal can vary depending on the router model and conditions in your
local environment. If you pair your camera to an optional Arlo SmartHub or base station,
we recommend that you place the camera no farther than 300 feet (90 meters) from the
SmartHub or base station. The range might be less if metal objects or thick walls and ceilings
are between a camera and the SmartHub or base station.
Make sure that your cameras display three or four bars of signal strength in the area where
you intend to install them. The camera can work when signal strength is at one or two bars,
but
might go out of range intermittently due to fluctuations in the environment.
Low battery
A low battery can cause the camera to stream intermittently. It’s time to recharge the battery
or change it when the battery level is down to two bars on the Arlo Secure App Devices page.
