VMS3130 VERSUS VMC3030 CAMERAS

RAYDAD — Mon, 26 Sep 2016 15:35:40 GMT

I currently own an Arlo 4-camera system which I have installed at my home. I'm thinking of adding a 5th camera, and when I look on Best Buy.com, I note that there are two options:

Arlo Model: VMS3130-100NAS which is listed as an 'IP' camera: $ 199.99

Arlo Model: VMC3030-100NAS which does not carry the 'IP' designation $ 159.99

Can anyone explain what the "IP" stands for and what ehhanced perfomance characteristics it might have in order to justify the 25% price increase over its non-IP brethren?

I believe one is the cam AND base (1 cam system), the other is just the camera by itself.

look under specs, what's included... one shows base

Just wanna' share this.. Can save you a bit.. This is at Target Retail Store.. I don't think it's sold thru their website.. coz' i looked it up it's not listed.. so if you have Target Store around your area then it's worth checking out.. This is an ADD-ON camera only..
