Arlo Ultra with google Wi-Fi

Alan_max — Sat, 21 Mar 2020 17:01:24 GMT

Just buy a Arlo ultra, but I am using Google Wi-Fi at home instead of router.
My question is how to connect Smarthub with the google wifi and makes the Arlo ultra works？
Thanks

If I understand right the google wi fi plugs into a modem. The modem should have another ethernet port you can plug the hub into. I ran my hub on my modem until they added SD card access to the phone app. To use that app the hub must be plugged into the same source as the phone wi fi. Everything but the SD access worked fine plugged into the modem. The hub uses it's own wi fi to talk to the cameras.

Yup. @LandJS has it right.

Plug Arlo base station into a Ethernet port on whatever Google box you have the delivers your wifi.
