My Arlo Camera VMC3050Alert1.4 went offline I am trying to get it back on line. I took the camera down and plug it in to recharge it. All it dose is blink an orange light every now and then. No indication if the battery has been charge.

That implies a dead battery. Recharging proactively when below 25% solves this.

Try using this procedure - the key is to plug in and unplug many times to get enough charge into the battery to then allow it to charge properly.
