Adding a second system with different wifi address/SSID. Will this be a problem?

beckpm — Fri, 24 Jul 2020 20:59:49 GMT

I have an Arlo Pro base station with three cameras at my condo - working great. I check it with the app on my iPhone.
I have recently bought a boat and ordered a new base station with two cameras. I will want to add them to my iPhone app and am worried that since the wifi access points/SSIDs will be different on the two systems I might have a problem. Will this be a problem when I add the new system? Is there some tricks I need to know to make this work? Thanks in advance for the advice. Peter

Forget about the SSID on the hubs.

You don't have access to them, and they will not get in the way of your access.

What matters is your account at my.arlo,com.

Thanks - I will just try to install it and see what happens.
