Hello Arlo!

First of all, nice work with Arlo Pro!

I am planning to create a smart home and use the protokoll Z wave. Are Arlo Compatible with Z wave so that I can intergrate the cameras in my smart home?

Thanx in advance!

No but the system is compatible with Smartthings, which has both Z-wave and Zigbee radios inside

Hi Steve,

Was planning to use Vera Control - Vera Plus (Gen 5) that use Z-Wave Plus, ZigBee, Bluetooth, LE Wi-Fi (802.11 a/b/g/n/ac).

So if I understand you correct I can use Arlo Pro with Vera?

Arlo is only compatible with SmartThings and that is fairly limited at this point. Unless someone writes a interface/stack etc. for it to work with Arlo (not sure if Netgear even offer an API etc. as it is a closed system) then you will NOT be able to use it.

Best thing is to search the Vera forums or even google to see if anyone has it working but I think it is pretty unlikely until Netgear allow it to happen.
