Using mobile data Arlo Pro

I’m in desperate need to work out how I can connect the Arlo pro base station with a Samsung device (usb c).

I intend to use the Samsungs mobile data so I can view the cameras remotely,

any help would be greatly appreciated.

The arlo base stations require connecting to the internet via an Ethernet cable/port.

This is usually to a network router/modem device feed with the internet.

I am not savvy with Samsung but expect it is not possible using the USB c port on any phone.

The only way might be possible is to setup a wifi hotspot with the phone and get a wifi extender that supports an Ethernet port to connect the base to.

You was absolutely correct.

i purchased a usb c - Ethernet adaptor.

enabled usb tethering on the Samsung device and connected the cables.

I can now remotely view the camera with ease and I get notifications when there activity.

many thanks for your help
