Connect to a hotspot

joenkim — Wed, 30 Aug 2023 16:39:01 GMT

I’d like to put an Arlo camera in a travel trailer while in storage. The facility has an Xfinity hotspot, which I have a login for. Can I use this to add the camera to a hotspot?

That depends on how you log into the hotspot. If it's just connecting to the WiFi via choosing the SSID and entering the password, it should work. If it's like a hotel or cafe where you have to provide any other info, no, you can't use that connection.

Yes it needs a user name too. Thanks for the reply!
