VMB4000 I have 3 PRO, 2 PRO2 and 1 ARLO ESSENTIAL WIFI CAMERA CONNECTED TO MY VMB4000 BASE

MY VMB4000 BASE STATION RUNS FINE WITH MY 3EA PRO, 2EA PRO2 AND 1 ESSENTIAL 2K INDOOR WIFI CAMERA. THE SPEC'S SAY ONLY 5 PRO CAMERAS ARE SUPPORTED ON MY VMB4000 BASE STATION. HOWEVER I RECENTLY ADDED 1 ESSENTIAL 2K INDOOR WIFI CAMERA TO MY VMB4000 THAT RUNS FINE WITH THE 5 OTHER ATTACHED CAMERAS.

QUESTION: CAN I ADD ANOTHER ESSENTIAL 2K WIFI CAMERA TO MY BASE STATION. THAT WOULD BE 7 CAMERAS TOTAL. (3ea PRO, 2ea PRO2 AND 2ea ESSENTIAL 2K CAMERAS) WILL THAT WORK?

The base stations are able to support up to 15 cameras each. You are limited to streaming 5 of those cameras at the same time.

The arlo account is limited to 5 legacy cameras pro/2 without a subscription plan. I.e. You can have more as long as you have subscription plans for the extra ones.

All camera models later than the pro2 requires a subscription plan or trial subscription anyway.
