Arlo Cameras from Previous Owner

mollieq714 — Tue, 09 Mar 2021 22:28:23 GMT

Hi everyone,

I am new to Arlo and unfamiliar with the system. I just purchased a new home and there are several outdoor Arlo cameras installed, as well as 2 other small pieces of equipment that they left in the home. It seems I am missing the base station or smart hub in order to connect it. So I guess my question is how to determine what model these cameras are and what I need to purchase in order to make this system work? I have attached pictures of what I currently have.

Thanks!

Those are Not cameras...they are the Arlo flood/ spot lights that came out about 2 yrs ago... one cube is a battery for same and the square item with button in middle is the BT connection to a smart hub/ base

Ah got it, thank you! So in order to make them work and connect, I will just need to purchase a smart home or a base? Does it matter which of the 2 I get?

yes, you will need a base unit

model 4000,4500. or 5000 will do for those ...tho if considering cameras you may want the 5000
