The closest I can get (and after several tries at inserting and removing the fully charged battery is holding down the sync button and then have it flash blue for a period of time. This does not happen all the time and I may only get one flash of the blue LED when the battery is inserted. When it does flash as it supposed to it will not sync, it then goes into flashing red / orange after a period of time. If I try to hit the sync button on the camera once again nothing happens, I have to remove the battery and after several more attempts I might be able to get the blue light to flash and try to sync. One more piece of information, after trying to get it to sync (after the flashing red / orange) if I leave the battery in the camera it will discharge after about 24 hours meaning something is left turned on in the camera although there is an absence of any LED activity, any suggestions on what to do is welcome.</P> Wed, 31 Mar 2021 23:52:44 GMT https://community.arlo.com/t5/Arlo-Pro-2/Firmware-Update-recently-went-through-my-Arlo-2-and-now-it-s/m-p/1815950#M49526 HMike99 2021-03-31T23:52:44Z https://community.arlo.com/t5/Arlo-Pro-2/Firmware-Update-recently-went-through-my-Arlo-2-and-now-it-s/m-p/1815977#M49527 <P>Sometimes removing the camera from your account, and then re-adding it works.</P> Thu, 01 Apr 2021 10:45:40 GMT https://community.arlo.com/t5/Arlo-Pro-2/Firmware-Update-recently-went-through-my-Arlo-2-and-now-it-s/m-p/1815977#M49527 StephenB 2021-04-01T10:45:40Z
