Of course, that wouldn't be useful unless you also have a UPS for your modem and router (and hub, if that's how the camera is connected rather than to your WiFi) so the Internet connection is maintained for videos to be uploaded.</P> Mon, 15 May 2023 12:14:16 GMT https://community.arlo.com/t5/Arlo-Pro-4/Outdoor-Charging-Cable-Usage/m-p/1913295#M9093 jguerdat 2023-05-15T12:14:16Z
