WINDOWS 10 - ReadyNAS Remote not connecting

Murjen — Sat, 20 May 2017 14:31:36 GMT

I live seasonally in Florida and purchased two Arlo Q cameras, however one of them somehow became disconnected from the power plug and I cannot reboot it remotely even though a neighbor has now plugged it back in, and live 20 hours from the location. I am also wondering what will happen if and when the power is lost due to a thunderstorm. Is there anything I can do remotely to reboot the cameras, and if not, are there any suggestions as to what I should do or purchase going forward so I can enjoy uninterrupted access to the cameras? Thanks for your help!

For remote locations, many use a UPS for the Arlo bases.... usu the Q cameras do come back automaticaly.

As to the power plug falling out, I would put a dab of silicon sealent on the plug once placed tightly in to prevent it happening again.

The Q cameras if online can be started remotely... In this case somehow it may be the Q lost your wifi info to re-hook.

For remote rebooting , there are Wemo power outlets that plug into the wall and you divice goes into it ..they are controlled via wifi. But with power failure, your still out of luck
